Recipe Instructions
Wash & prepare vegetables as described. Place onion into saucepan with a little oil and cook over medium heat until soft (3-4 mins). Add diced pepper and cook until they start to soften (3-4 mins). Add garlic and cook out for a minute before adding the spices and cooking for a minute or stirring frequently to avoid them smoking. Now add the tomatoes, kidney beans, water and sock cube; bring everything to a boil, then reduce to a low simmer, stir well and cover with a lid. Keep on cooking until vegetables are tender (12 – 15 mins) stirring occasionally. This soup is great if you blend half of it and then top with the reserved chunky bits – or just leave it chunky if you prefer – or you could blend it all until it’s nice and smooth – so many options, you’re the chef! Check for seasoning adding more salt and pepper as desired. Serve with any optional extras you may have. |
