Instructions
The Preparation
- Gather the ingredients. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Start by cleaning and quarter your 800 g tomatoes, 400 g red peppers and 1 yellow onion.
The Roasting
- In a medium mixing bowl, toss your quartered 800 g tomatoes, 400 g red peppers, 1 yellow onion, and 5 garlic cloves with 30 ml extra virgin olive oil. Proceed to add 1 tsp. dried oregano, 1 tsp. salt, ½ tsp. freshly ground black pepper, ¼ tsp. smoked paprika and ⅛ tsp. cayenne pepper (optional if you want more heat).
- Spread on baking sheets. Make sure the tomatoes are skin-side down, peppers skin-side down and garlic is in a corner. Roast for 35–40 minutes until caramelized and tender.
- Remove from oven and let it cool. Once cooled slightly, peel the garlic cloves.
The Soup
- In a large pot, heat the roasted vegetables and 1000 ml unsalted chicken broth and stir in 30 g tomato paste. Add the roasted garlic, 1 bay leaf, 15 g fresh basil leaves, and 15 g fresh parsley.
- Bring to a gentle simmer for 10 minutes to meld flavors.
- Remove the 1 bay leaf. Stir in 80 ml heavy cream. Using an immersion blender, purée until smooth and velvety. For extra smoothness, pass through a fine sieve. I like the texture as it is. Taste and adjust salt and pepper to taste
