About £0.45 a plate if you bought it all. Less with what you've already got.
The app checks what's already in your fridge, prices it at your shop and runs the timers for you.
You'll need
- Roasted peppers (jar)300g
- Chopped tomatoes400g
- Onions1
- Garlic2 cloves
- Stock cubes1 cube
- Smoked paprika5g
- Bread4 slices
Salt, pepper and oil from the cupboard. Amounts are for four; the app scales them for you.
Method
- Soften the onion (1) in oil (8 min), add the garlic (2 cloves) and paprika (5g) for a minute.
Kitchen note Take your time with onions. Low heat and a pinch of salt for a good 8 to 10 minutes until soft and sweet. Rushed onions stay sharp and crunchy.
- Add the drained peppers, the tinned tomatoes (400g) and 500ml stock.
- Simmer (15 min).
Kitchen note A low simmer means a lazy bubble now and then, not a boil. Stews and sauces are always better the next day, if you can wait.
- Blend until smooth and season. Grilled cheese on the side if you're feeling it.
Kitchen note Grate cheese yourself if you can. Bagged grated cheese is coated so it doesn't stick, which means it doesn't melt as nicely.
Can't find something? Doesn't matter. Swap it for something similar, it'll still be delish.
