Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Yellow pear tomatoes
- 2 medium Yellow bell peppers
- 3 large Garlic cloves
- 1 medium Yellow onion
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 750 milliliters Vegetable broth
- 125 milliliters Heavy cream
- 20 grams Fresh basil leaves
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
- 2 slices Crusty bread (optional, for serving)
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Wash the yellow pear tomatoes and yellow bell peppers thoroughly. Cut the tomatoes in half and the bell peppers into large chunks, discarding the seeds and stems.
Peel and slice the garlic cloves in half. Peel and roughly chop the yellow onion.
Place the tomatoes, peppers, garlic, and onion on the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with a pinch of salt and black pepper. Mix to coat evenly.
Roast the vegetables in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until they are softened and slightly caramelized.
Transfer the roasted vegetables to a large pot and add the vegetable broth. Bring to a simmer over medium heat.
Simmer for 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
Remove the pot from heat and use an immersion blender to puree the soup until smooth. Alternatively, transfer the mixture to a blender in batches and blend until creamy.
Return the pureed soup to the pot and stir in the heavy cream, fresh basil leaves, paprika, and any additional salt and pepper to taste. Simmer for another 5 minutes over low heat.
Serve hot, garnished with additional basil leaves if desired, alongside crusty bread for dipping.
