6 large tomatoes sliced in half
Handful of baby plum/cherry tomatoes

1 bulb of garlic top sliced off
Handful of fresh basil chopped
2 tbsp olive oil
1 tbsp balsamic vinegar

Instructions
Start by roasting the tomatoes, pepper and garlic for 30-40 minutes at 190 C until soft.
Next, in a large pan soften the carrots, then add the stock and roasted tomatoes, pepper and basil to the saucepan.
Blend until smooth, before squeezing in the roasted garlic and salt & pepper to taste. Bring to a boil for 5mins before turning down to a simmer for 10mins.
Serve at desired temp with a drizzle of cream like me or with croutons/bread and butter.
