Directions
Slow Roasted Vegetable Soup, The vegetables become really intensely flavoured, sweeter and more mellow. It’s lovely served for lunch on a biting cold day with a big chunk of bread and some cheese. Alternatively you can tart it up for a dinner party by topping it with crispy bacon pieces, some crumbled cheshire cheese or herby croutoms., Very good soup that’s chock full of flavour. I love the roasting aspect as it brings out the sweetness of the pumpkin and red pepper. Crispy bacon bits are a great topping prior to serving., I make a similar soup with the following additional trick: When the vegetables are carmelized and done, I remove the pan from the oven and pour a quart of tomato juice into the pan. I then let the whole thing cool to room temperature and scrape the contents into a food processor for blitzing. No other stock or liquid needed. All the amazing carmelized bits are absorbed and people have been known to swoon when eating this soup!
