Roasted Vegetable Soup

Serves: 4

You will need:

• 1 small eggplant, roughly chopped
• 1 large zucchini, roughly chopped
• 1 large red capsicum, roughly chopped
• 1 medium onion, roughly chopped
• 3 large ripe tomatoes, roughly chopped
• Extra virgin olive oil spray
• 2 large garlic cloves
• 1 tsp dried herbs or spices eg. basil, oregano, parsley
• 2 cups reduced salt chicken or vegetable stock
• 4 tbsp fat free Greek yoghurt
• Fresh herbs for garnish

Method:

1. Pre-heat oven to 180°C (160°C fan forced).
2. In a roasting pan, place eggplant, zucchini, capsicum, onion and tomatoes.
3. Add garlic cloves to the pan. Spray vegetables with oil and sprinkle over herbs.
4. Roast for 20-30 minutes, until the vegetables begin to brown.
5. Remove the skins from the garlic cloves. Transfer contents of the roasting pan to a saucepan and add the stock – you can add more or less stock to alter the consistency, depending on your preference. Bring the contents to the boil and then reduce to a simmer.
6. Place in a food processor and blend until smooth. Serve into bowls and garnish with a dollop of yoghurt and a sprinkle of fresh herbs.
