Rich and comforting roasted red pepper soup made with charred red peppers, onions, garlic, sun-dried tomatoes, and spices. Perfect for fall/winter nights.
Preheat the oven to 400F/200C fan setting and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
Add red peppers to the tray. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Mix well and cook for 22-24 minutes until the peppers are slightly charred.
Heat olive oil in a medium-sized pot and add cumin seeds. Add onions and fry for 3 to 4 minutes till they are translucent. Add garlic, mix well and cook for a minute.
Add tomato paste. Stir well and cook for about 2 minutes.
Transfer the roasted peppers to the pot. Add sundried tomato paste, salt, chilli powder, and coriander powder and mix well till the peppers are well coated with the spices.
Pour the vegetable stock and coconut milk and let the soup simmer for 10 minutes. Turn off the heat and blend till smooth using an immersion blender.
Taste and adjust the seasoning. Add more salt or pepper, if required, at this stage.
Transfer to a serving bowl. Drizzle some olive oil and coconut cream. Serve with some crusty bread or crunchy croutons. Enjoy!
