Forget all the other recipes on here, this is the definitive tomato soup barring none. You don't have to use the cheese rarebit toasts, they're just a garnish really.
Roast Tomato Soup with Cheese Rarebit Toasts - Serves 6
For the soup
1.3kg (3lb) tomatoes, halved
3 garlic cloves, roughly chopped
20 fresh basil leaves
1 tbsp caster sugar
4 tbsp olive oil
approx. 25g/1oz fresh, white breadcrumbs
from 1 slice of white bread, crust removed
850ml (11/2 pint) vegetable stock
For the toasts
1 large egg
100g (31/2oz) Gruyère cheese, grated
2 tbsp crème fraîche (sort of like sour cream)
1/2 tsp Dijon mustard
18 very thin slices of French flute bread (a very thin baguette loaf), toasted on both sides.
Method
1. Preheat the oven to 200° C, 400° F, gas 6.Arrange the tomatoes in a large, non-stick roasting tin, cut side up, then scatter with the garlic and basil. Sprinkle over 1 tsp salt and 1 tsp of the sugar, drizzle over the oil and
roast for 45 minutes.
2. Tip the tomatoes and oil with any residue into a food processor* and purée, then rub through a sieve.**
3. Return to the food processor with the breadcrumbs, remaining sugar***, and the stock then purée again until smooth. Reheat****
4. To make the toasts, mix the egg with the Cheese, crème fraîche and mustard. Season to taste. Spread onto the French flute, then place under a grill for 1 to 2 minutes until golden. Float three slices on top of each bowl of soup and season with black pepper.
*Or you can use a hand blender.
**You don’t have to rub through a sieve as
long as it is of a smooth consistency.
*** You can add more sugar at this point
if the taste is too sharp.
**** At this point you can add a dollop of
cream to make cream of tomato soup.
