Roasted Tomato Soup

Cream of Tomato Soup is very popular in India.Every restaurant that you go to has this on its menu.My favorite has to be the one in Palace Heights in Abids, Hyd.It is hard to replicate the Cream of Tomato Soup.Tomato Soup in any shape or from is really tasty and here is an oven roasted tomato soup and you can always top it off with cream.

1 lb Tomatoes ( like Grape/cherry or I am thinking even plum might work well), vertically slit
1 small potatoes,peeled,cut and boiled
1 medium Onion, roughly chopped
1 garlic clove, crushed
2 Bay leaves
1./4 tsp Curry Powder
1/4 tsp Cumin-Coriander Powder
2 cups Water/Stock
1 tsp chopped coriander
  • Preheat the oven to 350F
  • Cut the tomatoes and onions lengthwise and spread them on a baking sheet
  • Drizzle olive oil and season with salt and pepper
  • Roast them until they look wilted and take them out
  • Cool the potatoes and tomatoes
  • Blend them with boiled potato,garlic and enough stock with out making it too runny(You could pass this through a strainer if you don't like the tomato skins)
  • In a pan, heat a table spoon of Olive oil and add the Bay leaves
  • Transfer the blended tomato-onion-potato mixture into the pan
  • Stir in the curry powder and cumin-coriander powder
  • Simmer it for 15 min
  • Add the chopped coriander and salt and heat it for 5 more min
  • Serve hot!
