Spicy Tomato Soup


Ingredients


14 ounces (1 can) diced tomatoes in juice


3 tablespoons olive oil


3 cloves garlic, minced


1 small fresh or dried red chili pepper, seeds removed for less heat


1 carrot, peeled and thinly sliced


1 1/2 cups plain soy milk


1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice


Coarse salt and ground pepper, to taste


Parsley leaves, for garnish


 Directions


Heat broiler with rack in middle position of oven. Strain tomatoes, reserving juices. Spread tomatoes on a rimmed baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil, and broil until lightly browned, about 8 minutes.


In a food processor, combine browned tomatoes, garlic, chili pepper, carrot, soy milk, reserved tomato juice, and lemon juice; puree until smooth.


Transfer to a medium saucepan; bring to a boil over medium heat. Reduce to a simmer; cook 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Garnish with parsley leaves before serving.

I wonder if using canned fire roasted tomatoes would eliminate the need to broil the tomatoes...?

It would be a very different taste.
