Tomato Garbanzo Soup With Rice Food

RICE AND TOMATO SOUP

Steps:

• I like to make an unfussy rice and tomato soup (for myself, too, sometimes, especially when I'm trying to balance out my characteristic gluttony) by diluting a good, bought tomato sauce with water, adding a handful or so of basmati rice, and cooking until the rice is tender, about 8 to 10 minutes. With children it makes more sense to leave the soup fairly solid, but you can add water from a boiled kettle toward the end of cooking time if you want a thinner soup rather than liquid tomato-rice stew. Grate Parmesan on top and eat - with bibs.

GARBANZO BEANS 'N' RICE

Steps:

• In a nonstick skillet, saute onion and garlic in oil until tender. Stir in the tomatoes, zucchini and oregano. Cover and cook for 4-6 minutes or until zucchini is crisp-tender, stirring occasionally., Add the beans, salt and pepper; cook and stir until heated through. Serve over rice. Sprinkle with cheese.

Finally, add any white rice you're using, and simmer for a final 10 mins until the rice is tender.
• Just before serving, sprinkle over some chopped parsley and season to taste. Divide into bowls and add a swirl of pesto to each, if you like.
