Preparation
Tomato Soup
- Preheat the oven to 190°C and place the rack in the centre. Line a baking tray with parchment paper.
- Place the tomatoes, onion, garlic, olive oil, oregano, paprika, harissa paste, tomato paste, salt and pepper on the baking sheet. Mix well and bake for 45 minutes.
- Place the roasted vegetables in a blender (making sure to remove the garlic peel) along with the remaining tomato ingredients, and blend until very smooth.
Toppings
- Heat the oil in a small non-stick frying pan over a medium-high heat. Cook the chorizo, breaking it up with a wooden spoon, until it is slightly crispy, which should take about 4 minutes.
- Serve the tomato cream with the crispy chorizo, white beans, parsley and a drizzle of olive oil. Serve as it is with a slice of toast.
