Ingredients
-
6 large, ripe tomatoes
- 2 red peppers
- 1 onion
- 3 Garlic cloves
-
5 tablespoons olive oil
- ½ teaspoon sugar
- 1 teaspoon dried basil
-
1 teaspoon salt
-
½ teaspoon black pepper
Directions
Preheat the oven to 390°F. Line a baking pan with parchment paper.
Halve the tomatoes and place them on the lined baking pan, skin side down. Add the red peppers whole, poking a whole in each one with a fork or a knife. Drizzle with half of the olive oil and season with some salt and pepper.
- Roast for 20-25 minutes until slightly charred.
- In the meantime chop the onion and mince the garlic.
In a deep saucepan heat the remaining olive oil and sauté the onion for 5 minutes before adding the garlic. Season with salt and pepper and cook until golden brown.
- Add the tomatoes and peppers trying to transfer as many of their juices from the pan into the pot.
- Stir well. Add the basil.
- Process the soup with a stick blender (a food processor or regular blender would work as well) to get a thick creamy consistency.
Serve warm drizzled with extra olive oil and croutons.
