Print Recipe

A comforting and flavorful soup made with roasted red peppers, onions, garlic, and a touch of cream. Perfect for cozy dinners or impressing guests.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 large red bell peppers
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 4 cups vegetable broth
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste
  • Fresh basil, for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Place the peppers on a baking sheet and drizzle with a tablespoon of olive oil. Roast for 20 minutes, turning occasionally, until the skins are charred and blistered.
  2. Remove the peppers from the oven and allow them to cool. Peel off the charred skins and remove the seeds. Slice the peppers into strips.
  3. In a large pot, heat the remaining olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté for 3-4 minutes until softened. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for another minute.
  4. Add the roasted pepper strips to the pot along with the vegetable broth. Bring to a gentle simmer and cook for 10 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
  5. Use an immersion blender to puree the soup until smooth. If using a countertop blender, work in batches and blend carefully.
  6. Stir in the heavy cream and season with salt and black pepper to taste. Simmer for 2-3 minutes to warm through.
  7. Ladle the soup into bowls, garnish with fresh basil, and enjoy!

Notes

Roast the peppers evenly for the best smoky flavor. Adjust the seasoning as needed, and add a pinch of sugar if the peppers are slightly bitter.
