Print Recipe

Gordon Ramsay’s Roasted Tomato Soup is a rich and creamy tomato-based soup made by slow-roasting tomatoes with garlic, onions, and fresh herbs, then blending them into a smooth, velvety texture. The soup is finished with a drizzle of cream or olive oil, making it bold in flavor yet simple to prepare.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 lbs ripe tomatoes, halved (Roma or vine-ripened work best)
  • 1 large onion, quartered
  • 4 cloves garlic, peeled
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp salt
  • ½ tsp black pepper
  • 1 tsp sugar (optional, to balance acidity)
  • 1 tsp balsamic vinegar
  • 2 cups vegetable or chicken broth
  • 1 tbsp tomato paste
  • ½ tsp red pepper flakes (optional, for spice)
  • 1 tsp fresh thyme leaves (or ½ tsp dried thyme)
  • ½ cup heavy cream (optional, for a creamy finish)
  • Fresh basil (for garnish)

Instructions

Roast the Tomatoes and Garlic:

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C) – Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Toss ingredients together – Arrange tomatoes, onions, and garlic on the sheet. Drizzle with olive oil, salt, black pepper, and thyme.
  3. Roast for 25-30 minutes – Until tomatoes are soft, slightly charred, and caramelized.

Blend the Soup:

  1. Transfer to a blender – Add the roasted tomatoes, onions, garlic, and pan juices.
  2. Add broth and tomato paste – Blend until smooth and creamy.
  3. Strain for extra smoothness (optional) – Use a fine-mesh sieve for a silky texture.

Simmer and Finish the Soup:

  1. Pour into a pot – Heat over medium-low, stirring in balsamic vinegar and red pepper flakes.
  2. Simmer for 5-10 minutes – This enhances the depth of flavor.
  3. Add cream (if using) – Stir in heavy cream for extra richness.

Serve and Enjoy:
