How to Make Roasted Yellow Pear Tomato Yellow Pepper And Basil Bisque

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Prepare the tomatoes and peppers: Wash 1 pound yellow pear tomatoes and 1 large yellow bell pepper. Halve the pepper and remove seeds.
  3. Toss vegetables: In a bowl, combine the tomatoes and pepper halves with 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 teaspoon salt, ½ teaspoon black pepper, and ½ teaspoon dried oregano. Toss gently to coat.
  4. Roast vegetables: Spread the vegetables on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Roast for 15-20 minutes, or until peppers soften and begin to brown, and tomatoes start to burst.
  5. Prepare the broth base: While vegetables roast, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add 2 cloves minced garlic and 1 small chopped onion. Sauté for 5 minutes, until softened.
  6. Add tomatoes and broth: Add the roasted tomatoes to the pot. Stir in 4 cups vegetable broth (or chicken broth) and 2 tablespoons dry sherry (optional).
  7. Peel and add peppers: Place the roasted pepper halves in a bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and let sit for 10 minutes. The skins should peel off easily. Roughly chop the peppers and add them to the soup.
  8. Blend the soup: Using an immersion blender, puree the soup until smooth (or transfer to a regular blender in batches). Leave some texture if desired.
  9. Season and finish: Return the soup to the pot (if using a regular blender). Season with salt and pepper to taste. Add 1 cup heavy cream (or coconut cream for vegan option). Heat over medium heat until warmed through.
  10. Garnish and serve: Just before serving, stir in 2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil. Season with freshly ground black pepper. Garnish with a toasted baguette slice topped with goat cheese, and enjoy!
