Capsicum-Tomato Soup

Life's getting back to normal again.The roads are almost cleared of stagnant drain water and rains too have stopped.The only thing which is unpredictable is the electricity.One moment its there and the next its gone.I had plans of making a cake for the last day of RM,but I guess that has to wait.

I am not happy with the way I’ve dealt with RM.I would be most probably the only RM member who did not keep any drafts ready.I cooked for the day and posted about it.It worked fine till the cyclone struck.There was no electricity and even though I cooked a number of dishes keeping RM in mind,I just couldn’t take any pictures in pitch darkness,even during the day.I am ready to accept the Silver medal DK..and my grand finale post will make its appearance soon..

I made this soup for dinner today, mainly to finish off the once-plump-looking capsicum which became size zero due to no power..nothing spectacular,it just added a twist to the good-old tomato soup.And I made it in the MW,cooking in MW after a long long time!!
