Roasted Tomato & Capsicum Soup ❤️
Makes 4 serves
To roast:
• 900g tomatoes, quartered
• 1 whole capsicum, quartered
• 4-5 garlic cloves, peeled
For the soup:
• 1 tbsp butter
• 3 tbsp olive oil
• ¼ cup flour
• 1½ tbsp tomato paste
• 1 litre chicken bone broth
• 1 tsp sugar
• 1 tsp black pepper
• Salt, to taste
• 60ml cream
• 1 tbsp chopped basil
Method:
Roast the tomatoes, capsicum and garlic at 250°C until deeply browned and caramelised, about 30-40 minutes.
Cool for 10 minutes, then blend to a smooth paste.
In a large pot over medium heat, melt the butter with the olive oil.
Stir in the flour for 1-2 minutes, then add the tomato paste and stir for another 1-2 minutes.
Whisk in 250ml of the bone broth until smooth. Add the remaining 750ml broth, the roasted veg paste, sugar, pepper and salt to taste.
Bring to a boil, then stir through the cream and basil.
We usually add boiled eggs, bacon and Parmesan as protein (and Focaccia for the carbs 😏🤤)
