De bereidingswijze

Stap voor stap

  1. 1

    Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

    Ongeveer 5 min

  2. 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.

    Ongeveer 3 min

    Tip van de kok: Ensure vegetables are in a single layer for even roasting.

  3. 3

    Roast the vegetables for 30-35 minutes, or until the tomatoes are softened and slightly caramelized.

    Ongeveer 35 min

    Tip van de kok: The caramelization adds depth of flavor to the soup.

  4. 4

    Carefully transfer the roasted vegetables to a large pot or Dutch oven.

    Ongeveer 2 min

  5. 5

    Pour in the vegetable broth and bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat.

    Ongeveer 5 min

  6. 6

    Reduce the heat to low, cover, and let it gently simmer for 10 minutes to allow flavors to meld.

    Ongeveer 10 min

  7. 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.

    Ongeveer 5 min

    Tip van de kok: If using a standard blender, work in small batches and vent the lid to release steam, covering with a kitchen towel.

  8. 8

    Stir in the heavy cream and fresh basil. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.

    Ongeveer 1 min

  9. 9

    To make the grilled cheese, spread butter evenly on one side of each slice of sourdough bread.

    Ongeveer 2 min

  10. 10

    Place four slices of bread, butter-side down, in a large skillet over medium heat.

  11. 11

    Top each slice with cheddar cheese, then cover with the remaining bread slices, butter-side up.

    Ongeveer 1 min

  12. 12

    Cook for 3-5 minutes per side, or until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.

    Ongeveer 10 min

    Tip van de kok: Adjust heat if necessary to prevent burning. Low and slow is best for a perfectly melted interior.

  13. 13

    Cut the grilled cheese sandwiches in half and serve immediately with the hot tomato soup.
