Method

  1. Grill chillies and peppers for 5-10 mins, turning often, until the skin is blistered and lightly charred. Place in a plastic bag, then set aside to cool. Once cooled, peel off the skins, deseed and roughly chop the flesh.
  2. Heat the oil in a large pan. Add the onion and cook for 5 mins until softened. Add the garlic and cook for a further 2 mins. Add the vegetable stock and potatoes, bring to the boil, then simmer for 10 mins until tender.
  3. Allow to cool slightly. Place in a food processor, then process to a coarse purée. Return the mixture to the pan and bring to the boil. Add the sweetcorn and some of the chillies, peppers and spring onions, then simmer for 2 mins. Stir in the coriander and cream. Season, top with the remaining chilles, peppers and spring onions and serve with warmed pitta bread, if liked.
