Ingredients
  

  • 2 medium bell peppers
  • 6 medium tomatoes
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 medium onion chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 medium carrot chopped
  • 1/2 cup vegan cream
  • 1 teaspoon nutritional yeast
  • 1 tablespoon tamari
  • 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
  • 1/2 teaspoon cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
  • to taste salt
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 200 degrees C. Halve the bell peppers, seed and trim them and lay out on a non-stick baking tray or a baking tray lined with parchment paper. Roast until softened and charred, for around 25 minutes. Wait for them to cool down before carefully removing the skin.
  • Meanwhile, prepare the other vegetables. Fill a pot with boiling water. Make a score at the bottom of the tomatoes and submerge them in the water for around 10 minutes. Afterwards, drain, rinse and peel the tomatoes.
  • While the tomatoes are in the water, heat some olive oil in a pan. Add onion, garlic and carrot, and cook for around 7-8 minutes, until softened.
  • To a blender, add the tomatoes, roasted peppers, the cooked vegetables, vegan cream, nutritional yeast, tamari, balsamic vinegar, cumin, paprika, salt, and lemon juice. Blend until smooth.
  • Transfer the soup to a large pot over a medium heat and stir to heat through for around 5 minutes before serving with a few swirls of vegan cream, fresh herbs and crusty bread.
