Roasted Pepper Soup

Roasted Pepper Soup

The sweet taste of paprika is heightened from cooking in the oven. The soup gets its "heat" from a few drops of sriracha (chilli) sauce and has a crisp and tasty topping of almonds and crumbled cheese. It goes well with a cheese sandwich.

Ingredients

7 Red peppers
1 Brown white onion
2 Garlic cloves
2 Tomatoes
Butter
800 ml Water
2 Vegetable stock Cubes
200 ml Whipped cream
1 tsp Salt
1 pinch Ground White pepper
1 tsp Caster sugar
5 Drops Sriacha sauce
150 g Feta With Garlic & Herbs
60 g Chopped almonds

Instructions

Step 1

  • Heat the oven to 200º.

Step 2

  • Put the peppers on a baking tray and roast in the middle of the oven for about 40 minutes until the skin is almost black, turn them halfway. Then put the peppers in a bowl and cover with cling film. Leave to cool.

Step 3

  • Peel and chop onions and garlic. Chop the tomatoes. Fry the onion in butter in a saucepan for 1-2 minutes. Add in the tomatoes for a few minutes, stirring every now and then.

Step 4

  • Peel the cooled peppers, removing the seeds and the core. Chop the peppers and put in a saucepan to fry for a few more minutes.

Step 5

  • Add the water and stock cubes. Bring the liquid to the boil, lower the heat and simmer for about 10 minutes.

Step 6

  • Use a hand blender to make the soup smooth and add the cream and heat gently. Season with salt, pepper, sugar and sriacha sauce.

Step 7

  • Strain the oil from the cheese. Serve the soup topped with crumbled cheese and chopped almonds.
