Red pepper and chilli soup is a deliciously warming recipe with a spicy kick. It’s quick and easy to make in a soup maker, requiring very little preparation.

Making Red Pepper and Chilli Soup In A Soup Maker
I have made this recipe in a Morphy Richards soup maker as well as a Ninja Soup Maker. The same recipe will work in all soup makers, but if you have the compact version of a Morphy Richards you will need to reduce the quantities.
What You Need:

- 1 onion, chopped
- 2 garlic cloves, crushed
- 2 red peppers, chopped
- 1 potato, chopped
- 1 fresh red chilli
- 750ml vegetable stock (approx)

Prepare the ingredients by washing and chopping the peppers, potato, red chilli (take care when handling), chopping the onion and crushing the garlic cloves.

There is no need to peel the potato, just give it a good clean first. The potato has been added to thicken the soup, add more potato if you prefer a thicker soup. You can substitute the potato for red lentils if you prefer.

Add all of the ingredients to your soup maker and add stock up to the MAX level. Place the lid on and set the soup maker off on the smooth setting.

Once the soup maker has finished, pour the soup out and add any additional seasoning or croutons.

Hi can someone help me please I’ve made this soup twice now and it comes out like water and no taste where am I going wrong

Hi Annemarie, I’m so sorry for the late response. If the soup is coming out too thin, try adding a little more potato or around 75g of rinsed red lentils, which will help thicken it. It is also worth checking the vegetable stock you’re using, as some cubes and stock pots have much more flavour than others. Once cooked, taste the soup and add salt, pepper or a little extra chilli if needed.

How much red lentils would you use in place of potato. TIA

Hi Loz, sorry for the late reply! I would use around 75g of dried red lentils in place of the potato. Rinse them first and add them directly to the soup maker with the other ingredients. The soup may thicken as it stands, so you can stir in a little extra hot stock after cooking if necessary.

How long will it keep in the fridge and can you freeze it, I loved it

Hi Sue, I’m so sorry for the late reply. Once cooled, store it in a covered container in the fridge and eat it within two days. It also freezes well for around three months. I like to freeze it in individual portions, then defrost it in the fridge and reheat it until piping hot.

Just made this soup and it's lovely! I might swap the potato for a sweet potato next time. The spud I used has made it taste slightly soapy. I've made some crusty bread to go with it :-P

Hi Nina - sorry for such a late reply! Sweet potato would work well, although it will make the soup slightly sweeter. A soapy or bitter taste can sometimes come from a potato that is past its best or beginning to turn green, so avoid using any with green patches. The crusty bread sounds perfect with it!
