A rainbow of vegetables, roasted until sweet, tender. All blended together with stock and creamy-yet-sharp parmesan and you’ve got the perfect lunch to warm you up from the inside.
I love making easy meals like this in winter. There’s something about dishing up ladles of steaming hot soup into waiting bowls. Dunking a nice wedge of bread in there, knowing you’re eating something nutritious, homemade and absolutely delicious.
Roast chunks of sweet potato, red and yellow bell peppers, carrot, red onion and garlic (skin on) in the oven with a little olive oil, salt, pepper, paprika and cumin.Add the roasted vegetables to a large pan (reserve a few bits to top the soup) and squeeze the garlic out of their skins to add in there too.Add a litre of vegetable stock and simmer for 5 minutesBlend carefully with a hand blender, then stir in grated parmesan (or vegetarian hard cheese) and a little more seasoning.
Serve topped with the reserved roasted vegetables and a sprinkling of Parmesan and fresh thyme leaves.
Can I make it without roasting the vegetables?
You can, of course, make this veggie soup without roasting the vegetables – just boiling them up with the spices in the stock for 20 minutes will give you a lovely soup. But roasting them? It just adds a wonderful sweet and slightly smoky flavour. You can even enhance that smoky flavour by using smoked paprika.
