- 1 ball of burrata cheese
- 5-6 leaves fresh basil for garnishing if desired
Roasting
- 4 medium tomatoes
- 2 medium onions
- 3 cloves garlic
- 1 red bell pepper
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp sugar
- 1 tsp black pepper
- A bit of fresh thyme
Thickening
- 1 tbsp butter
- 1 tbsp flour
- 1 tsp tomato paste
Liquid Ingredients
- 4 cups water (warm)
- ½ cup milk (room temperature)
Preheat Oven and Prepare Vegetables:
Roast the Vegetables:
Place the tomatoes, red bell pepper, onions on a baking sheet. Place the garlic into the tomatoes. Season with salt, pepper, sugar and a sprinkle of fresh thyme. Roast in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the vegetables are caramelized and tender.
Prepare the Soup Base:
In a large pot, melt the butter over medium heat.Add the flour and cook, stirring constantly, for about 1 minute to create a roux. This will help thicken the soup. Add tomato paste and stir. Cook for another minute, until the paste is well incorporated and fragrant.
Blend the Vegetables:
Once the vegetables are roasted, transfer them to a blender or use an immersion blender directly in the pot. Blend until smooth. You can adjust the consistency with additional water if needed.
Combine and Simmer: Use a mesh strainer while adding the blended vegetables to the pot with the roux and tomato paste. Mesh strainer removes any solid bits and achieve a smooth texture. Pour in 4 cups of warm water and bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce the heat and let it simmer for 10 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.
Finish with Milk and Serve:
Stir in ½ cup of room-temperature milk to add creaminess to the soup. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt, pepper, or a pinch of sugar if needed. Ladle the soup into bowls. Garnish with a bit of fresh thyme - basil and a dollop of burrata cheese. Enjoy:Serve the soup warm, paired with crusty bread, a light salad or baton sale/grissini for a complete meal.
