Add a photoSoup is a great dish for when a meal is needed in a hurry and this Tomato and Red Pepper Soup with Meatballs is no exception. Strictly, I should say meatless balls because the recipe is using a vegetarian alternative. You could easily substitute your choice of meat to use in preparing the meatballs. I'd suggest a different stock if using meat. Use beef or chicken stock to match the actual meat used.
Ingredientes
- 6 Meatballs of your choice
- 250ml/10fl oz Passata (sieved tomato)
- ½ medium Red Pepper
- 1 small brown Onion
- 1 medium Carrot
- 2 cloves Garlic
- 1 medium Tomato
- 1 Vegetable Stock cube
- 1-2 Tbsp Tomato Paste
- 1-2 tsp dried Basil or 1-2 Tbsp fresh
- Sea Salt
- Grated Black Pepper
- Parmesan or similar vegetarian hard cheese
Direcciones
- Peel and chop the onion and garlic. Place into a large pan.
- De-seed the pepper then chop into smallish chunks.
- Grate the carrot then add to the pan along with the pepper.
- Chop the tomato then scrape into the pan complete with all the juices.
- Pour in the passata then add around 500ml/20 fl oz cold water plus the stock cube and basil. Stir until well mixed.
- Bring to the boil then reduce heat and cover. Simmer gently for 15-20 minutes. Taste at this point then add tomato paste if the soup needs a flavour boost.
- Add the meatballs into the soup then bring the heat up so that they are fully cooked. The picture shows a vegetarian meatless ball which cooks best directly in the soup and needs 15-20 minutes added cooking time. Actual meatballs are better cooked before adding to the soup to retain their shape then cook in the soup for 5-10 minutes.
- Ladle servings of the soup along with the vegetables into 2 serving bowls. Spoon 3 of the meatballs into each bowl then you are ready to serve.
- Serve with vegetarian hard cheese or parmesan and Rustic Bread
