This soup is a long time favourite, we discovered it in Iceland’s, Reykjavik, Noodle Station.
It is so simple, tasty and filling as you eat it in giant bowl fulls.
The really great thing about this dish is it’s versatility it can taste however you like and adding the spices yourself means its a great dinner party dish.
