Creamy Roasted Tomato and Garlic Soup

  1. Ingredients:
  • 2 lbs ripe tomatoes, halved
  • 1 large onion, quartered
  • 1 whole garlic bulb
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 4 cups vegetable broth
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1 tsp sugar (optional)
  • 1/2 tsp dried thyme
  • 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes (optional)
  • Fresh basil leaves, for garnish

Directions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Place the halved tomatoes, onion, and garlic bulb (cut off the top to expose the cloves) on the baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
  3. Roast for 30-35 minutes, until the tomatoes are soft and slightly caramelized, and the garlic is golden and fragrant.
  4. Once cool enough to handle, squeeze the roasted garlic cloves out of their skins.
  5. In a large pot, combine the roasted tomatoes, onions, garlic, vegetable broth, thyme, and red pepper flakes. Bring to a simmer and cook for 10 minutes.
  6. Use an immersion blender (or transfer to a blender) to puree the soup until smooth.
  7. Stir in the heavy cream and adjust seasoning with salt, pepper, and a pinch of sugar if needed.
  8. Serve hot with fresh basil on top and a side of crusty bread.
