Creamy Tomato Bisque

Inspired by my friend Nadhar. Thank you for the inspiration—it is a heavenly soup!

Ingredients

(Serves 4-6)

• 5 large tomatoes, cut into wedges

• 2 medium white onions, cut into wedges

• 5 garlic cloves, cut in half

• 2 tbsp olive oil

• 2 bullion cubes

• 2 cups water

• 1 cup heavy cream

• 1 tsp thyme

• 1 tsp oregano

• Salt & pepper to taste

• Top with fresh parsley

Instructions

• Preheat your oven to 350 degrees

• Cut up your tomato, onion and garlic, place on a baking sheet

• Drizzle with oil and season with thyme, oregano, salt & pepper

• Place in oven and cook for 30 minutes

• Remove from oven, place in medium-sized pot over medium heat, and blend until smooth with immersion blender

• Add water and bullion cubes, give it another blend for ultimate smoothness, bring to a boil and let it cook down for 5-10 minutes

• Stir in cream, move to your favourite bowl, and top with fresh parsley

• Serve alongside grilled cheese… I like putting pickles in mine (try it—it’s phenomenal)
