Remarks
This recipe that follows on from another (pork belly with lentils) is very approximate, so do adapt it to suit what leftovers you have.
If you have a little pork belly left, you can add small dice to the soup.
Be careful when seasoning - the stock is often quite salty already, so do check before adding anything.
