Ingredients
- 2 large red bell peppers (1 lb)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1/2 teaspoon curry powder
- 1 bay leaf
- 1 large onion, sliced (2 cups)
- 2 large carrots, sliced (1/2 lb)
- 4 garlic cloves, peeled and sliced
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
Method
- Preheat oven to 350°F Place bell peppers on baking sheet, and roast 1 hour, or until skin is wrinkled and blackened all over, turning peppers occasionally with tongs. Transfer to bowl, and cover with plastic wrap 10 minutes to steam. When peppers are cool enough to handle, rub off blackened peel, and remove seeds.
- Heat oil in 2-qt saucepan over medium heat. Add curry powder and bay leaf, and stir 10 seconds. Add onion, carrots, garlic, and salt. Cover, and cook 10 minutes, or until onion is translucent.
- Add 4 cups water, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer, covered, 25 minutes.
- Transfer carrot mixture to blender, add bell peppers, and puree until smooth. Stir in lemon juice. Garnish servings with bell pepper slices, if using.
