This recipe will be on the go again shortly when the weather turns, the original was from my mums 1937 school book, but having 14 kids thrown into the mix abit of meat and whole onions ended up in there, it is by no means Stovie’s but some people might have there own version. Any way give it a try, lovely with the steak or mince 😎
Here is the old favorite, what’s your go to home special? Cannae beat a guid pot of soup😀

Tattie soup
This is a Whithorn version of this soup, there are lots of variations and names! You can also use a pun 1lb of diced stewing steak, or a pun o mince, if you do remember to brown off with an onion at the start and then add your water and follow the recipe from there😀

Two pints of water, a hunner (6)decent sized tatties peeled and chopped into small cubes, add salt and start to boil, add a stock cube or two, add a couple of decent sized chopped carrots and boil for 20 mins, add a bit more water if needed, then add a hunner (10 or 12) sausages, remember to prick them so they don’t split so easy and a few whole small onions (peeled). 🤣 Turn the heat down a wee bit and let it simmer for 45 mins or so, the longer you let it simmer will determine how much the tatties break down!!
That will be £1.50 and a freddo for the recipe (that was for my daughter who just asked for the recipe)🤣
