Nothing better than a delicious soup! Especially a soup that can be served both warm and cold. This is a lovely, creamy, light yet flavorful soup that almost require not effort from your end. Most of the vegetables are roasted in the oven until tender and golden brown, then mixed using a high speed blender. This soup is great to make both in warm and cold weather since you can choose to heat it or have it cold and very refreshing. I just topped my soup with crispy cucumber, sunflower sprouts and sunflower seeds. You can also top it with your favorite bread on the side, cheese like feta, mozzarella or pecorino, with fresh basil, diced tomatoes, drizzle some Creme fraiche over it just to mention a few.

A few tips:

  • Use sweet and juicy tomatoes when making this soup and not bland and tasteless once. Good quality tomatoes add both sweet, rich and fresh taste to the soup. If using bland tomatoes the soup will taste less.
  • Roast the tomatoes, red bell pepper and garlic until tender, golden brown and soft. Keep an eye on them so they don’t burn.
  • The amount of chili can be adjusted according to taste depending on how spicy you prefer your soup.
  • Preferably use a high speed blender when mixing the soup to make sure you don’t get any large chunk left. You can also use an electric hand mixer.
  • This soup can be served both warm and cold.
