Ingredients

3 red peppers, de-seeded and quartered

1kg large vine-ripened tomatoes

15g butter

1 red onion, chopped

2 garlic cloves, chopped

1 level tsp smoked paprika

700ml hot vegetable stock

Heat the oil and butter in a pan. Add the onion and cook until soft and translucent. Add the garlic and cook for another minute. Add the tomatoes, peppers and paprika, then cover and cook over a medium heat for 10-15 minutes or until the tomatoes are soft.
5
Add the stock, cover and simmer for 5 minutes.
6
Add the prawns and sweet chilli and cook for 5 minutes, then purée in a processor or with a stick blender.
