step 1
Preheat the oven to 180°C/160°C fan/ gas mark 4.
step 2
Blitz the bread (2 slices) in a food processor to make rough breadcrumbs. Toss with the chilli flakes (1 tsp) and thyme leaves (1 bunch) and season. Heat a splash of olive oil in a frying pan over a medium heat and fry the breadcrumbs until golden. Set aside.
step 3
Arrange the peppers (4), onions (1), garlic (1/2 bulb) (no need to peel) and chilli (1) on a roasting tray and drizzle with olive oil. Roast for 20 minutes, until soft.
step 4
Remove from the oven and squeeze the garlic cloves from their skins into the tray. Add the tomatoes (1 tin), vinegar (1 tbsp), thyme (1 bunch) and oregano (1 bunch), then return to the oven for another 5-10 minutes.
step 5
Cook the lentils (100 g) with the stock pot (1) according to the pack instructions. Blitz the red pepper mix in a blender until smooth. Combine with the cooked lentils, taste and add a splash more balsamic vinegar, if needed.
step 6
Ladle the soup into serving bowls. Serve each topped with some torn burrata (1), the breadcrumbs and the fresh oregano and basil (1 handful) (if using). Drizzle with a little olive oil.
