Steps:
- Roast peppers: rub oil on peppers and put them under the broiler until blackened, turn to get all sides. Put into paper bag and seal. Let rest for 15 minutes, then peel will come right off and core and seeds will fall out. Chop peppers. Reserve one chopped pepper; set aside.
- Heat olive oil over moderate heat. Add onion and garlic and cook until soft but not brown, about 5 minutes. Stir in tomato, bell peppers (except reserved), thyme, paprika, and sugar. Cook over medium-low heat until all the tomato juices have evaporated, about 25 minutes.
- Stir in chicken stock, salt and pepper, cayenne pepper, and hot sauce (if using). Bring to boiling, lower heat, and simmer, partially covered, for 25 minutes or until vegetables are tender.
- Strain soup, reserving broth. Place solids in food processor or blender, and process until fairly smooth. Add puree back into broth.
- Melt butter and stir in the flour, cook for 1 minute. Stirring slowly, add the broth/vegetable mixture. Add reserved chopped pepper and bring to boiling. Lower heat and simmer 10 minutes.
- Ladle into bowls and add 1 tablespoon of sour cream to each bowl. For a lighter soup, this is also delicious without the sour cream.

TOMATO AND ROASTED RED PEPPER SOUP
This is my favorite soup. It's a nice balance of sweet and savory, and it freezed beautifully. I like it with grilled cheese. (I hate to specify a brand name / hard to find ingredient, but I haven't found a good substitute for Thai Kitchen's roasted red chili paste.) [This is adapted from The Naked Chef (Jamie Oliver).]

Steps:
- Broil the red peppers, turning them so they blacken on all sides. Once they're black, put them in a bowl, cover tightly with plastic wrap, and leave them until they're cool enough to handle (about 30 minutes). Peel, seed, and roughly chop them.
- Warm the olive oil in a thick-bottomed pot over medium heat. Add the peppers, chili paste, and a pinch of salt, stir to combine, and cook for 5 minutes.
- Finely chop the garlic, add to the pot, and cook for 2 minutes.
- Drain the tomatoes, and add to the pot with the red wine vinegar and a pinch of salt. Cook for 10 minutes.
- Add the chicken stock. Puree with a stick blender until smooth, and simmer for 15 more minutes.
CREAMY TOMATO AND ROASTED RED PEPPER SOUP
Steps:
- Heat the oil in a 2 qt pot over medium-high heat. Add onion and carrot and saute until tender. Add garlic and saute till fragrant. Season with salt and pepper. Add tomato paste and cook till toasted about 1 min. Add tomatoes, peppers, broth and simmer for 25 minutes until vegetables are tender and flavors are melded. Taste for seasoning and add more salt pepper and sugar. Blend until smooth.
Tips:
- Use ripe, flavorful tomatoes. This will give your soup the best flavor. If you don't have ripe tomatoes, you can roast them in the oven before adding them to the soup.
- Roast the red peppers. Roasting the red peppers will deepen their flavor and make them slightly smoky. You can roast the peppers in the oven or on the grill.
- Use a good quality vegetable broth. The vegetable broth is the base of the soup, so it's important to use a good quality broth. Look for a broth that is low in sodium and has a rich, flavorful taste.
- Don't overcook the soup. The soup should be simmered until the vegetables are tender, but not mushy. Overcooking the soup will make it bland and watery.
- Season the soup to taste. Add salt, pepper, and other seasonings to taste. You can also add a pinch of cayenne pepper for a little bit of heat.
- Serve the soup with a dollop of sour cream or yogurt. This will add a creamy richness to the soup.
Conclusion:
Tomato and roasted red pepper soup is a delicious, healthy, and easy-to-make soup. It's perfect for a quick lunch or dinner, and it's also a great way to use up leftover tomatoes and red peppers. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy soup recipe, give this one a try. You won't be disappointed!
