Ingredients

  • 1 kg ripe plum tomatoes, halved
  • 1 onion, cut into wedges
  • 6 garlic cloves, unpeeled
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 500 ml vegetable stock
  • a large handful of basil
  • 2 tsp balsamic vinegar
  • salt and pepper, to taste

Method

  1. Roast

    Toss the tomatoes, onion and garlic with the oil and a good pinch of salt, and roast at 200°C until the edges are blackened in places. That scorching is the whole difference between this and a tin.

    40 min
  2. Squeeze the garlic

    Squeeze the roasted garlic out of its skins into the tray and scrape up any sticky caramelised bits.

  3. Simmer

    Tip everything into a pan with the stock and simmer for ten minutes to bring it together.

    10 min
  4. Blend and season

    Blend until smooth with the basil, then season and sharpen with the balsamic. A soup this sweet needs the acid or it tastes flat.
