Making roasted bell pepper soup..
Although the main ingredient is red bell pepper, you can add tomatoes and onions to soften up the overall flavor of the soup.Â
Originally bell peppers have slightly bitter but more sweetish notes to it. When you add tomato, it imparts slightly tangy taste to balance the flavors.
These peppers and tomatoes along with onion and garlic cloves are then roasted until slightly charred. I have roasted in the oven but these taste best with stove top roasting too. You can add 2 tbsp oil to the pan and add these ingredients. Roast it until they are soft and slightly browned.
Cool these ingredients and then blend to a smooth paste.
This soup is flavored with basil powder, salt and tinge of cumin. Trust me these flavors bring out the best taste.
