Spicy tomato soup
Spicy tomato soup
This filling tomato soup really packs a punch, thanks to all that chipotle paste. Add plenty of fresh ginger for even more warmth
Ingredients
- 400 g tin chopped tomatoes
- 2 tbsp tomato purée
- 3 cloves garlic
- 1 thumb-sized piece ginger peeled and sliced
- 600 ml vegetable stock cooled
- ½-1 tbsp chipotle paste (depending on how hot you like it)
- a small bunch coriander chopped
- 1 green pepper cut into bite-sized pieces
- 1 medium green chilli chopped
- 5 tbsp basmati rice
- 4 tbsp natural yogurt
Instructions
- Put the tomatoes, tomato purée, garlic and ginger in a blender or food processor with the stock and whizz until smooth. Pour into a large pan and add the chipotle, ¾ of the coriander, green pepper, most of the chilli and seasoning. Bring to a simmer and cook on a medium heat for 10 minutes, then add the rice and cook for another 10-15 minutes or until the rice is tender. Add a little water or stock if the soup is too thick. Serve in bowls with a dollop of yogurt, the rest of the coriander and chilli, and a generous grinding of black pepper.
