This is a lovely creamy soup that is made with roasted tomatoes, garlic, shallot and chilli! James serves this with some cumin and Mexican salt flavoured flatbread!
Ingreadient :
1 shallot, peeled and diced
500g ripe tomatoes, halved
4 cloves garlic, peeled
1 red chilli, sliced
50ml olive oil
Salt and pepper
500ml vegetable stock
50ml double cream
400g cherry tomatoes, halved
100ml olive oil
Few sprigs of thyme
Few sprigs of rosemary
200g plain flour
Water, to mix
Pinch of cumin
Mexican salt
Basil oil
Drizzle of cream
Few croutons
Direction :
Preheat the oven to 200C
Place the shallot, tomatoes, garlic and chilli onto a baking tray, and then drizzle in olive oil. Season this and then roast for 1 hour.
When done, carefully tip into a blender, add the stock and the cream, and then blitz. When it’s been blended, pop this into a saucepan and warm through.
For the confit tomatoes, roast the cherry tomatoes in the oil and thyme for 30 minutes.
For the flatbread, mix its ingredients together, then pass through a pasta machine. Sprinkle with Mexican salt, then bake at 200c for 8 minutes.
To serve, spoon the soup into bowls, top with oil and a drizzle of cream, and then sprinkle over croutons and confit tomatoes.
