"This vibrant, veggie-packed soup is naturally low in saturated fat and high in fibre—helping to support healthy cholesterol, blood pressure, and reduce inflammation. Made with reduced salt stock, it’s a heart-friendly way to get some of your 5-a-day and enjoy a warming, nutritious meal."


Method

  1. Place the red peppers, garlic cloves, tomatoes and onion in your air fryer tray and drizzle with rapeseed oil. Roast for 15 minutes on 180°C or until soft.
  2. Once cooked, add to a blender, making sure the skin is off the garlic. Add the chilli flakes (more if you can handle the heat) and some of the vegetable stock. Blend.
  3. Add more vegetable stock until you reach your required consistency.
  4. Add the mixture to a pan and heat.
  5. Serve and enjoy.

    Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp rapeseed oil
  • 2 x red peppers, roughly chopped
  • 2 x garlic cloves, crushed
  • 400 g tomatoes, halved
  • 1 x red onion, roughly chopped
  • 400 ml reduced salt vegetable stock
