Roasted Red Pepper Soup With Tomato & Feta
Serves 4
30 minutes
1200 g canned tomato
4 large fresh red peppers, roasted and deseeded
100 g onion
1 tablespoon olive oil
125 g feta cheese, cut into small cubes
1 teaspoon dried basil
4 tbsp chilli sauce (or to taste)
Cook the olive oil and finely chopped onion over a low heat with the basil. Important that it doesn't take any colour. After a couple of minutes add a little water then turn down the heat, cover with a lid and leave to sweat for 5 minutes
When the onion is translucent add the tinned tomatoes and red peppers
Simmer covered for about 10 minutes
Allow the soup to cool a little. Add the sweet chilli sauce and most of the feta.
Liquidise the soup, then which you should cut into small cubes.
Reheat lightly to serve, crumble remaining feta on top
