Tomato and Red Pepper Soup Recipe
- 1 Large onion
- 2 Garlic cloves
- 1 Red pepper
- Oil (to fry)
- 1 Tin plum tomatoes
- 1 tbsp Oregano
- 1 tsp Paprika
- 1 tbsp Tomato puree
- Salt
- 1 Vegetable stock cube
- Handful fresh basil
Directions
This is a classic winter-warmer. I’m cooking with Napolina tinned plum tomatoes to make this easy tomato soup recipe. It’s really convenient without compromising on taste.
- Peel and finely chop the onion and garlic.
- Wash the pepper, remove the core/seeds and chop into small pieces.
- Heat some oil in a saucepan on the stove then fry the onion, garlic and pepper for 5 minutes.
- Add the tomatoes, oregano, paprika and tomato puree into the saucepan. Sprinkle in some salt to season and crumble in the stock cube.
- Stir the contents of the pan. If it’s a little thick, add some boiling water from the kettle.
- Leave to simmer for 15 minutes with the lid off.
- Stir in the basil then blitz using a hand or stand blender until you’re happy with the consistency of the soup.
- Serve straight away and enjoy.
