Creamy Red Pepper Soup
(serves 3)
2 tbsps butter
3 cloves garlic, roughly chopped
1 shallot, roughly chopped
4 red bell peppers, roughly chopped
2 sprigs thyme, roughly chopped
long splash Marsala wine
3 cups vegetable stock
1/2 –3/4 cups double cream, depending on how creamy you like it
sea salt and black pepper to taste
Melt the butter in a heavy saucepan and throw in garlic, shallots, peppers and thyme. Saute till just not raw. Add Marsala and turn up heat to burn off alcohol for 30 seconds or so. Add chicken stock and simmer until peppers are cooked, about 25 minutes. Whizz with a hand blender and put through a sieve to catch pepper skins and thyme stems. Add cream to soup and season.

(makes enough for one round on the barbecue of whatever meat you have going)
1/3 cup each: honey, maple syrup, leftover tomato sauce, hoison (plum) sauce
couple shakes: maple vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, lemon juice
Stir or shake all this up, rinse out the empty jars you’ve liberated from your refrigerator door, recycle them and count this a lucky, frugal, environmentally sound and delicious condiment.
