Roasted Tomato Soup

I think it's soup season! Still hot around here, but I'm making soup anyway and willing the season to change. And what could be better than this Roasted Tomato Soup. I always stew tomatoes for soup, and this time I tried roasting them for a change. The flavour is wonderful and I may never stew tomatoes again. Great soup whatever the season.

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Place all the tomatoes on a large baking tray, cut side up. Drizzle over about 1/2 of the olive oil and a little sea salt and black pepper. Roast for about 40 minutes or until they are all charred and soft. Remove from oven and set aside.
  • In a large pot set over medium to high heat, add the remaining olive oil, garlic, chillies and bay leaves. Stir for about a minute and add the onion. Stir for a few minutes over high heat and then reduce heat to medium low to continue the cooking of the onions. Stir regularly for the next 15 minutes or so. Add the spring onions and cook for a further 5 minutes.
  • Add tomatoes and stock to the onions. Stir and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover and leave to simmer about 10 minutes.
  • Remove bay leaves from the soup and blend in batches. Season with salt and pepper to your tasting. Ready to serve.
