Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 lg Onion, choped fine
2 Cloves Garlic, crushed
1 Green Chilli (optional)
1 lg Head Broccoli
1 md Courgette/Zucchini, sliced
1 lb Chopped Skinned Tomatoes
1 t Mixed Herbs
1/2 t Marjoram
1/2 t Basil
1 cn Butter Beans (the big ones,
Also called Lima beans?)
1/4 c Rich vegetable stock
1/4 c Soya Milk
250 ml Soya Yoghurt
1 d Lemon juice
1/2 t Salt
1/2 t Pepper
1/4 c Corn
1 T Tomato Puree

Fry the onion, garlic and chilli in a little water or olive oil. Add the
base and stalks of the broccoli (i.e. everything except the flowerets), and
the courgettes. When all this has softened sufficiently add the tomatoes
and the herbs. Leave to simmer (covered) for fifteen minutes. While that is
underway combine the beans, stock, soya milk, yoghurt, lemon juice, salt
and pepper in a liquidiser until a smooth mixture is obtained. After the
fifteen minutes are up add the bean mixture and simmer uncovered for a
further five minutes. Add the corn and then enough tomato puree to take
away the anaemic look. Serve on its own or with a macaroni style pasta.
