Studenty soup

Seeing the blazing sunshine outside, soup might not be the first thing on your menu. But such a cheap and lovely lunch idea could not be ignored. I'm off to enjoy the vitamin-D, have a good one!

It can't get much more studenty than this, but it is surprisingly yummy.

A little bit of Heat

After 24 hours of particularly Glaswegian-style weather: rain, snow, sleet and hail with little rays of sunshine in between (all in 5 minute intervals), I am craving something with a little bit of heat to it.

Tomato soup with a kick

400g of diced tomatoes
1 white onion
1 clove of garlic
1 red chili (medium heat)
1 veggie stock cube (and some water - if needed)
fresh basil (dried will do as well)
some goat's cheese to balance the heat
a drop of oil

1. Sauté the onion, garlic and chopped chili.
2. Add the diced tomatoes, veggie stock and let it simmer for 10-15 minutes
3. Just before serving add the basil and top of with the cheese.
