Fremgangsmåde
Trin for trin
- 1
Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Ca. 5 min.
- 2
Arrange the roma tomatoes, yellow onion, carrot, and garlic on the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and black pepper.
Ca. 3 min.
Kokkens note: Ensure vegetables are in a single layer for even roasting.
- 3
Roast the vegetables for 30-35 minutes, or until the tomatoes are softened and slightly caramelized.
Ca. 35 min.
Kokkens note: The caramelization adds depth of flavor to the soup.
- 4
Carefully transfer the roasted vegetables to a large pot or Dutch oven.
Ca. 2 min.
- 5
Pour in the vegetable broth and bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat.
Ca. 5 min.
- 6
Reduce the heat to low, cover, and let it gently simmer for 10 minutes to allow flavors to meld.
Ca. 10 min.
- 7
Using an immersion blender, blend the soup until smooth. Alternatively, carefully transfer the soup in batches to a standard blender and blend until smooth. Return to the pot.
Ca. 5 min.
Kokkens note: If using a standard blender, work in small batches and vent the lid to release steam, covering with a kitchen towel.
- 8
Stir in the heavy cream and fresh basil. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
Ca. 1 min.
- 9
To make the grilled cheese, spread butter evenly on one side of each slice of sourdough bread.
Ca. 2 min.
- 10
Place four slices of bread, butter-side down, in a large skillet over medium heat.
- 11
Top each slice with cheddar cheese, then cover with the remaining bread slices, butter-side up.
Ca. 1 min.
- 12
Cook for 3-5 minutes per side, or until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Ca. 10 min.
Kokkens note: Adjust heat if necessary to prevent burning. Low and slow is best for a perfectly melted interior.
- 13
Cut the grilled cheese sandwiches in half and serve immediately with the hot tomato soup.
Ca. 1 min.
