The Recipe
Ingredients:
6 med. tomatoes, quartered
8-10 cherry tomatoes (for sweetness)
1 red bell pepper, roughly chopped
1 russett potato, roughly chopped
1 bulb of garlic
olive oil
3 sprigs of thyme
1 tbsp butter
1/2 onion, finely diced
1/2 tsp red pepper flakes, optional
1 tsp dried oregano
salt & pepper
Instructions:
1) Set the oven to 375F. On a sheet pan, toss red bell pepper and potato with olive oil and salt. Place in oven. Next, toss all tomatoes in olive oil and place in a baking dish. Cut off the top the bulb of garlic, drizzle with olive oil and add to the same baking dish. Sprinkle salt over the top. Top with the sprigs of thyme. Bake for 20-30 minutes.
2) Meanwhile, in a large pot, sauté butter and onion on medium-low heat. Once the onion starts to caramelize, add a pinch of salt, dried oregano and red pepper flakes. Stir together.
3) After the ingredients in the oven have finished roasting, add roasted ingredients into a blender, squeezing each clove of garlic out of the bulb carefully. Blend until smooth. Combine the blended ingredients into the large pot with caramelized onions. Stir to incorporate. If the bisque is to thick, add water to get the consistency you desire. Drizzle in cream. 4) Serve with the traditional grilled cheese. Enjoy!
