A classic from the Scottish Highlands, Scotch Broth is as nourishing as it is satisfying. We make ours with slow-cooked lamb, root vegetables, pearl barley, and split peas — a slow-simmered soup with depth and body, the kind that lingers warmly after each spoonful.

Serve with thick slices of crusty bread, buttered generously.

Perfect for a rainy night, very warming. I liked the texture from the pearl barley.

Nice tasting soup I didn’t use all ingredients just used up bits and pieces that I had in fridge that needed to be used up. Love a good soup.

It was really easy recipe and full of flavour! It definitely served more than the suggested number us, but we are looking forward to the flavour developing in more in the leftovers.

Terrible photo of a delicious meal. The other half had 5 bowls and the 6 year old 3 bowls! Warm and nourishing! We cooked it on top of our wood burner after browning on the stove

More of a stew then a soup. Substantial, nourishing, delicious! I needed to add 2 cups of water at the end to thin it down a bit. Would easily feed 6 hungry adults.
