Mexican-style roasted tomato soup
Background
This vegan Mexican-style roasted tomato soup is rather spicy. If you donβt like the heat, roast only one chilli and/or remove the seeds and veins before cooking. I find the heat refreshing andΒ warming on breezy summer evenings or during the winter months. Serve it with tortilla chips, flatbread or wholesome gluten-free bread.
Ingredients
- 6 ripe tomatoes
- 4 garlic cloves, peeled
- 6 shallots, peeled (or 1 large onion, cut into wedges)
- 1 carrot
- 1 red chilli pepper
- 1 green chilli pepper
- 1 tsp ground cumin
- 1 tsp ground coriander
- 1 tsp smoked paprika
- 1 tsp dried or fresh oregano leaves
- Salt and pepper
- 350 ml vegetable stock (approx.)
- 1 handful coriander leaves
- Lime juice
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 180Β°C.
- Cut the tomatoes in half and put them in a large baking tray. Roughly chop the carrot.
- Tuck the garlic cloves, shallots, carrot pieces between the tomatoes and add the whole chillies.
- Scatter the spices on top and season with salt & pepper. Drizzle with olive oil, then bake for 20-25 minutes, until the tomatoes have softened.
- Transfer everything into a pan, add the hot vegetable stock and coriander leaves, then process with a hand-held blender until you get a thick, smooth soup.
- Reheat if necessary.
- Add the lime juice, then garnish with coriander leaves and serve.
