I put 5 bell peppers and half a bulb of garlic in the oven without preparation. Took out the garlic after 20 minutes, left the bell pepper for 45. Peeled both after cooling.
Fried onion, added a stalk of celery after a while, and freshly grated ginger and turmeric. Added tomato paste.
Added water, two stock cubes (herbs, not meat) and some dried green herbs, no idea which ones, I just used the first pot I saw.
Let it simmer until everything was soft, added 2/3 of the bell pepper and all of the garlic and used the stick blender.
Added the rest of the pepper cut in small pieces.
Added the leftover cream, not creamy enough so I added some cream cheese as well.
When dinner time came I garnished with parmesan and smoked paprika before putting the bowl of soup in the microwave.
I think today I'll throw in some fried bacon cubes as well. I think halloumi cubes would work well too, if you prefer vegetarian, but I don't have halloumi and I do have bacon.
