*I didn't feel the need to insult your intelligence with pictures of dicing and sauteing....I'm sure you've gotten the hang of it by now. Plus, it's cold and I'm being lazy. I'm sure you understand. :)
Roasted Red Pepper Soup
Serves 4-6.
2 tablespoons olive oil2 tablespoons butter
2 onions, diced
2 carrots, diced
3 garlic cloves, minced
2 sprigs fresh thyme

6 large red bell peppers, roasted
1 starchy potato, peeled and chopped

Melt olive oil and butter over medium heat in a large Dutch oven. Add onions, carrots, garlic and thyme and saute until the onions are translucent, about 5-6 minutes. Add the stock, bell peppers, potato and sugar. Bring to a simmer over high heat. Reduce heat to medium low and simmer, partially covered, until potatoes are very tender, about 30 minutes.
