This wonderful nourishing soup is easy and inexpensive to make. You’ll probably find that you have most of the ingredients in your cupboards already!

(Serves 6)

You’ll need:

1 tablespoon cooking oil
1 onion, diced
1 pepper, diced (either green, yellow or red)
2 teaspoons mild curry powder
1 tin chopped tomatoes
1 tin coconut milk
1 tin kidney beans
1 tin butter beans
500ml vegetable stock
Salt and pepper to taste
Coriander to serve

Here’s how:

  • In a large pot heat up the cooking oil. Add the onions, peppers and curry powder and cook for five minutes until fragrant and the onions are translucent (you can always add a bit of water if the onions and peppers start to burn).
  •  Add the tin of chopped tomatoes and cook for a few more minutes. Add in salt and pepper to taste.
  • Add the two tins of beans (liquid included), along with the coconut milk and vegetable stock.
  • Cook on a low heat for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Top with coriander when serving.

Note:
You need two tins of beans for this soup and any beans will do! You can have two tins of the same beans or mix them up like we did.
