Yesterday saw me rather tired towards the end of the day and it had been raining incessantly, so a hot, comforting soup seemed to be the best choice for dinner. The camera was in office, so no photos unfortunately, but it did come out well. I chopped , french beans, spring onions, a few frankfurters, carrots and a whole lotus stem. The stems were fried and set aside. In a little sesame oil, I fried some finely sliced ginger and , then tossed in the rest of the , added some beef stock, threw in the fried lotus stems and frankfurters, added a splash of soya sauce, chilli oil and and finally put in some par boiled noodles. When it was merrily boiling away, I also poured in some beated egg. Looked spectacular, was nutritious and tasted divine. I had two bowls – and you haven’t seen the size my bowls!

Anyhow, this post is about bell .

Apart from the roasted bell soup I had posted a while back, have you tried topping toast with it or using it as a dip?

Topping:
After roasting and peeling, roughly chop, mix with extra virgin olive oil, balsamic vinegar, a dash of sea and some grated grana padano. Try this on melba toast or any other toasted bread. Quite good as an appetizer.

Dip:
Follow the same process as the topping above, just add a little extra cheese, a dash of cream and paprika, then whiz for a few seconds. You could also add a little puree if you like. Great as a very different dip.
