Chicken and Prune Soup

To anyone familiar with the traditional Scots soup Cock a’ Leekie, this soup won’t sound at all strange with its combination of chicken and prunes. I love it, and it’s one of those soups which come into the meal-in-one-soup category. It’s very filling and substantial, yet not calorie-laden – the rare and perfect dish! It has to be made a day before it is to be eaten.
