    This is an authentic Lamb Scotch Broth recipe using lamb, rather than beef which you often see today. The result is a great base for many other recipes or a good soup on its own.

    I followed the recipe nearly exactly but used some lamb broth that I had on hand instead of water. The depth of flavour was amazing. I used yellow peas rather than green dried peas for their color to contrast with the green cabbage. Just wish I had doubled the recipe because everyone wanted more. Next time for sure.  -  28 May 2015  (Review from Allrecipes UK & Ireland)
