8whole cloves garlic, peeled and smashed with the back of a knife
3tablespoonsolive oil
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1largeonion,chopped
1 yellow capsicum, deseeded and diced
3tablespoonstomato paste (optional)
4cupsvegetable broth
2cupslightly packed fresh basil leaves, roughly torn
Instructions
Preheat oven to 430°F | 220°C. Place tomatoes on a baking tray with the garlic cloves. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons of oil, season with salt and pepper, and roast for about 25 minutes, or until soft and charred on the tops.
While tomatoes are roasting, heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a medium-sized pot/saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the mix; pour in the broth/stock; season with extra salt; cover and bring to a boil.
Reduce heat to low; simmer for about 15 minutes. Add the tomatoes, garlic and basil to the broth (save 2 tablespoons of basil to use as garnish if you wish); continue to simmer until the basil is just soft (about 2 minutes). Blend soup using a stick blender until smooth.
Optional: Pour the soup through a strainer or colander to remove any skins and thick tomato pieces, for a smoother soup.
Sprinkle with extra basil, shaved parmesan cheese, and serve with Bindoon Bakehaus Sourdough bread
