This is one my Mum always used to make in the winter - great as Scotland can get to cold and this warms you up from the inside out and really fills you up. She always prefered to make it with the creamof mushroom soup (she hates tomatoes) however I prefer the tomato one as it gives the dish an extra little lift.The debate continues....
