Authentic Snowdon Trekker's Beef & Lentil Soup

Simmer diced beef with onions, carrots, and celery. Stir in dried green lentils, beef stock, and bay leaves.

Cook slowly for 1 hour until the lentils have thickened the broth into a hearty, rib-sticking consistency.

Season with black pepper and serve with crusty bread. A fortifying, traditional meal for those exploring the Eryri (Snowdonia) mountains.
