Soup is good

Red pepper, parsley and feta soup (makes 2 people full)

So I was eating scrambled eggs for breakfast this morning, sipping some coffee, when I noticed my kitchen went grey, there was a tea cloth fire on my stove. Comfort food needed. Have some soup.

1 large white onion

4 large red peppers



handful of coriander leaves

handful of parsley

handful of basil

1 clove of garlic (finely chopped)

2tsp cumin

1tsp caster sugar

1tsp salt

1/2tsp dried chilli flakes

500ml vegetable stock (I added lots of parsley and let it brew for a bit)

some crumbled feta (as much as you want to sprinkle on top)

Dice onion. Heat up olive oil in a big pan, add the onion and handful of coriander, cook on low until the onion turns translucent. Add the garlic. Dice the red peppers (keep a handful aside) add to the onion, along with cumin, sugar, salt and chilli flakes. Add the stock and allow to simmer for 5 mins. Cover with a lid and cook on low for 15mins. While the soups still hot, use a hand blender to pulverise the soup until it's real smooth. Finely chop the basil and parsley. Pour soup into bowls, add some raw pepper, chopped basil, parsley, and then crumble feta on top.
