Scotch broth
Scotch broth is a traditional Scottish soup that is both hearty and delicious. It typically consists of mutton or lamb, barley, vegetables like carrots and leeks, and various herbs and spices. The ingredients are cooked together in a flavorful broth until everything is tender and the flavors have melded together.

- 1 cup pearl barley

- 4 cups water
- 1 bay leaf
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- Salt and pepper to taste
- fresh parsley chopped for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- In a large pot, heat some oil over medium heat. Add the diced lamb or mutton and cook until browned on all sides.
- Add the chopped onion and minced garlic to the pot and cook for a few minutes until they become fragrant.
- Stir in the diced carrots, sliced leeks, pearl barley, bay leaf, dried thyme, salt, and pepper.
