Ratatouille

Here is something I have been meaning to make for ages and I finally remembered to get all the ingredients in at once!

Ingredients

Tin of Chopped Tomatoes
1 Red Onion
1 Corgette (Zucchini)
1 Aubergine (Eggplant)
1 Red Pepper
1 Yellow Pepper
2 cloves of Garlic
Salt and pepper
Oregano
Basil

1. Chop the vegetables and crush garlic. Stirfry garlic with the vegetables for a couple of minutes.
2. Add the tin of chopped tomatoes, I also added half a tin of water.
3. Add herbs to taste.
4. Simmer until vegetables are soft.

I served mine with a chicken breast stuff with cream cheese, herbs and wrapped in ham with some broccoli. It is equally good on it's own with a sprinkle of cheese.

Chantenay Carrot and Pea Soup

Ingredients

1 bag of Chantenay Carrots
1 Onion
750 ml of vegetable stock (I use Knorr Stock Pots)
Garden Peas
Salt and Pepper



1. Top and tail the carrots, you can peel them but I left the skin on.
2. Fry the onions for couple of minutes then add the carrots


3. Pour 500ml of the stock into the pan and cook until carrots are soft.


4. Once soft blitz the soup until smooth and add the remainder of the stock. If you don't like your soups thick just add boiling water until it is the consistency you like. Add salt and pepper to season, you can also add herbs if you like.


5. Finally add the peas and warm through.


 I got 7 servings from this soup and it was delicious.
