Calories 172kcal
Ingredients
- 1 large sweet potato (approximately 500g / 1lb), roughly chopped
- 2 red/yellow peppers roughly chopped
- 1 red onion roughly chopped
- 3 garlic cloves
- 3 cm ginger
- 2 teaspoons cumin
- 1 teaspoon chilli flakes or to taste
- 15 g fresh coriander
- 400 g tin chickpeas including the water
- 400 g tin tomatoes
- 100 ml cold water
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Put all the ingredients in the blender. Place the jug on the base and switch on. Press the soup function.
- If necessary, use the tamper to push the ingredients down onto the blades.
- The soup should be completely smooth and perfectly hot after 8 minutes.
Notes
If you do not have a blender with soup function, simply blend the ingredients and then heat in a pan on the stove. Alternatively you can make the soup in a more traditional way by frying the onion, garlic, spices and chilli in a pan, then adding the other ingredients and simmering on a low heat for around 20 minutes, then blending.
Suitable for freezing.
