The South Marysburgh Mirror Pepper & Tomato Soup By David Larkin One Christmas season, when we were stationed in Europe, we were invited round to a 'Soup Kitchen’ evening. Our hosts coped with quite a crowd of guests by serving a selection of excellent soups in their kitchen, accompanied by glasses of wine. It is an idea that we picked up on, and we have done the same thing ourselves from time to time. Last time we did it here, we served Mulligatawny Soup, Pierre and Janet Berton's Clam Chowder, and Pepper and Tomato soup. The latter was a last minute thought but it proved very popular. Here is the recipé: 2 Tbsp. oil 1 onion, peeled and sliced 1 small red pepper, cored, seeded and sliced 1 small yellow pepper, cored, seeded and sliced 1 small green pepper, cored, seeded and sliced 1 Ib. tomatoes, peeled, seeded and chopped 600 ml. stock, preferably ham but chicken will do 2 Tsp. mixed herbs 2Tsp. sugar 1 Tbsp. tomato paste 1 Tbsp. lemon juice Salt and freshly ground black pepper To garnish: plain unsweetened yogurt Heat the oil in a large pan. Add the onion and pep- pers and cook over a gentle heat for 10 minutes. Add the tomatoes, stock, herbs, sugar, toma- to paste, lemon juice, and salt and pepper to taste. Bring to the boil, lower the heat, cover and simmer for 30 minutes. Remove a few of the pepper slices from the soup with a slotted spoon, chop and reserve. Pureé the soup in a blender or with an immersion (stick) blender. Reheat gently until boiling, then serve in individual bowls sprinkled with the reserved pepper and a spoonful of yogurt.
