Cooking Steps

Step 1

Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Halve the tomatoes and place them on a baking sheet.

Step 2

Drizzle the tomatoes with olive oil, and season with salt, pepper, and minced garlic. Roast for 30 minutes, or until softened.

Step 3

In a large pot, heat the vegetable broth over medium heat. Add the roasted tomatoes (including any juices from the baking sheet) to the pot.

Step 4

Use an immersion blender to blend the soup until smooth. Alternatively, transfer the soup to a regular blender, being careful to vent the lid to prevent splattering. Blend until smooth.

Step 5

Stir in the heavy cream and chopped fresh basil. Heat through, but do not boil.

Step 6

Season with salt, pepper, and a splash of balsamic vinegar to taste. Serve hot.

Step 7

Garnish with extra basil leaves or a swirl of cream, if desired.

Excellent recipe! The soup was creamy and delicious. I used fresh basil from my garden, which made a big difference in the taste.

Isaac Anderson2

I followed the recipe, but the soup was too watery. I'm not sure what went wrong. The flavor was also a bit weak.

Bob Williams4

Very good, easy to follow recipe. The soup was creamy and flavorful. I might add a bit more balsamic vinegar next time for a tangier taste.

Alice Johnson5

Absolutely delicious! The roasting of the tomatoes really makes a difference. I added a pinch of red pepper flakes for a bit of heat, and it was perfect. Will definitely make this again!
