• Place tomatoes skin-side down on the grill and leave for about 10 minutes, until skins are blackened and tomatoes have softened slightly. (If using the broiler, place the tomatoes on a rimmed baking sheet skin-side up and broil for 10 minutes.) Transfer tomatoes to a large bowl.
• Add garlic, cayenne, coriander seeds, cilantro, 2 tablespoons olive oil and sherry vinegar. Stir all ingredients together. Let mixture sit for 10 minutes to allow flavors to marry.
• Purée tomato mixture with a blender or food processor. Strain through a medium mesh sieve, if desired. Thin with a little water if too thick. Taste and adjust seasoning. Chill well. (The soup will taste best if served within a few hours.)
• Put cherry tomatoes in a small bowl. Sprinkle with salt and toss with a tablespoon of olive oil.
• To serve, ladle the soup into chilled shallow bowls. Put a large spoonful of ricotta on top, and spoon cherry tomatoes over. Sprinkle with chives.

Steps:

• Rub the pepper with a little of the oil and grill it on the rack about 5 to 6 inches from the heat source, turning frequently, until it is charred on all sides, about 10 to 15 minutes. Transfer it to a bowl and cover the bowl with plastic wrap. When cool enough to handle, peel the pepper and remove the seeds, Chop the pepper and set aside. Let the grill fire cool to medium heat.
• Toss the potatoes with 1 tablespoon of the oil and salt to taste and arrange in one layer on the rack. Grill, turning frequently, until browned and tender, 15 to 25 minutes. Transfer the potatoes to a large bowl and while still hot, toss with the vinegar. Rub the corn with the remaining oil, season with salt and grill, turning frequently, until the corn is lightly golden on all sides, 10 to 15 minutes. Cut the corn off the cob and add to the bowl with the potatoes. In a small bowl whisk together the yogurt, mayonnaise, chipotle, adobo sauce, and salt, to taste. Add the chipotle mayonnaise, red pepper, and cilantro to the potato salad and toss gently.
