Luckily this Halloween inspired recipe from Morrisons tastes better than it sounds

Serves 8

Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp sunflower oil
  • 1 onion, peeled and finely chopped
  • 300g potatoes, peeled and cut into small cubes
  • 500g frozen peas
  • 1.5 litres vegetable stock
  • 150g streaky bacon
  • 300g can mushy peas

Method: How to make swamp soup with witches' scabs

1. Heat the oil in a large pan and gently fry the onion until soft but not browned. Add the potatoes, peas and stock and bring to the boil, cover and simmer for 10 minutes.

2. While the soup is cooking, grill the bacon until crispy. Drain onto absorbent kitchen paper and snip into small pieces - the 'scabs'.

3. Blend the soup in batches in a food processor then return to the pan with the mushy peas, stir well and heat through. Serve with a sprinkling of crispy bacon.
