Ratatouille Soup


This soup is healthy, filling, full of flavour, easy to make and gentle on your pocket - what else could you possibly want?! And for more comforting winter meal you can add some meat; beef would go really well... Or maybe even chorizo... I'll definitely try that next time I'm making this soup. It will be soon :)


Ingredients
 
1 red onion
1 clove garlic
1 red pepper
1 courgette
1 aubergine
15ml (1tbsp) olive oil
1x400g can chopped tomatoes
1 vegetable stock cube
1/2 tsp paprika powder
1 tbsp fresh basil



Instructions

1. Peel and dice the onion. Crush the garlic. Core, deseed and dice the red pepper. Dice the courgette and aubergine.
2. Heat oil in a large saucepan. Add the vegetables and cook over a gentle heat for a few minutes until softened.
3. Add the can of tomatoes. Fill empty can with water and add. Crumble in the stock cube. Cover and simmer for 20 minutes. 
4. Stir in the paprika powder. 
5. Serve sprinkled with torn basil.
