100g pearl barley
1 litre water
Add oil to a large pot and saute onion, covered, over very low heat, until softened. Add carrots & celery and saute until they are also soft.
Add the barley and one litre of veggie stock (I started out with Marigold and then discovered the Vecon in the hoard - it needs to get used up!
