Ingredients
- 3 medium carrots
- 3 celery sticks
- 1 medium courgette
- 1 red pepper
- 100g broccoli
- 150g cauliflower
Method
- Wash the veggies and peel the carrots.
- Cut the carrots and celery into big chunks and add to a food processor.
- Blitz for a few seconds to break them down.
- Chop the courgette, red pepper, broccoli and cauliflower into chunks and add them to the food processor.
- Blitz again for another few seconds.
- Remove the lid and stir the veggies so that they all get evenly broken down and then blitz again.
- Be careful not to over-blitz as the veggies will start to go mushy. You want a very small grainy texture.
- Transfer to one large freezer bag or individual pots or food trays and freeze.
- When ready to use, simply break off a chunk and add to meals like spaghetti bolognese, curries and chilli.
- You can also make a simple pasta sauce by cooking the frozen veggies in tinned tomatoes, seasoned with herbs and then blitz until completely smooth.
