Cook the onion slowly in a large saucepan being careful not to burn, add seasoning and if it starts to catch then add a little water. At the same time, cook the lentils with loads of water, some salt and a clove of crushed garlic.
Add sliced cabbage and the sprouts, quartered, to the onion and continue to cook until they all start to soften. Add the green beans, chopped and cover with water. Add the rest of the garlic sliced and bring to the boil. Add the lentils which should be cooked by now and simmer for a couple more minutes. Don't overcook it!
Next add the broad beans, thyme, peas and rocket and cook until it's back to a simmer and the peas are defrosted.
Liquidise in batches, no need to thicken because of the lentils. Serve with low fat yogurt and black pepper, if you don't want a fat free version then spoon over a little pesto.
