How to cook deliciously - Roasted Tomato Soup with Chipotle

1. Stage

Roast the tomatoes, bell pepper, garlic, and onions: Arrange the tomatoes and red bell pepper cut side down on the sheet. Place the garlic cloves and onion on the baking sheet. Paint olive oil over the vegetables and sprinkle everything with salt. Bake in the oven 45 minutes, or until the skins of the tomatoes and peppers start to blacken.

2. Stage

Purée the roasted vegetables with chipotle: Remove the baking sheet from the oven and allow it to cool for 10 minutes. Pick the tomato and red pepper skins off the tomatoes and peppers and discard. Peel the skins off the garlic and discard. Reserve the baking sheet. Put the roasted tomatoes, onions, peeled garlic, roasted peppers, and chipotle into a food processor or blender. Add any of the tomato liquid that may be left in the baking pan. Scrape up any browned bits on the pan (not blackened bits) and add those to the food processor bowl as well. Pulse until you have a rough purée, about 60 seconds.

3. Stage

Add the stock and simmer: Pour the purée into a medium pot. Add 2 cups of stock. Heat the soup to a simmer. Add salt to taste.

4. Stage

Serve: Garnish with a dollop of sour cream that has been lightly thinned with water, and freshly sliced basil or chopped cilantro.
