Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 red bell pepper, chopped
  • 1 green bell pepper, chopped
  • 500g lean ground beef (or turkey mince)
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 1 tsp dried basil
  • ½ tsp smoked paprika
  • Pinch of red pepper flakes (optional)
  • 700g passata (or crushed tomatoes)
  • 400g diced tomatoes, undrained
  • 1 litre beef broth (or vegetable broth)
  • 100g long-grain rice, uncooked
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

  • Heat the olive oil in a large frying pan over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the minced garlic, red pepper, and green pepper and cook for another 3 minutes, until slightly tender.
  • Add the ground beef to the pan and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned. Drain off any excess fat.
  • Stir in the dried oregano, dried basil, smoked paprika, and red pepper flakes (if using). Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Give it a good mix so the meat and veggies are evenly coated with all the lovely spices.
  • Transfer the mixture from the frying pan to your slow cooker.
  • Pour in the passata, diced tomatoes, and beef broth. Add the uncooked rice. Stir everything together to combine.
  • Cover the slow cooker and cook on low for 6-8 hours or on high for 3-4 hours, or until the rice is tender and the soup has thickened slightly.
  • Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with fresh chopped parsley. Serve with a crusty bread roll for dipping, if you like!
