Directions

  1. 1

    Clean and wash the orange peppers. Place the pods on a tray with the skin side facing upwards. Place them under the hot oven grill for about 10 minutes until the skin turns black and blisters. Take the tray out of the oven, cover the peppers with damp kitchen paper and let them cool down for about 15 minutes. Then peel and dice the peppers.

  2. 2

    Peel, wash and cut the carrots into small cubes. Peel and finely dice the shallots and garlic. Wash and chop the tomatoes.

  3. 3

    Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a large pot. Briefly sauté carrots, shallots and garlic in it. Add peeled peppers, tomatoes, vinegar and 3⁄4 l water, bring to the boil. Stir in stock and simmer for about 15 minutes. Roughly puree the soup with a hand blender. Season with salt, pepper, 1 pinch of sugar and 1⁄2 TL turmeric. Let the soup cool down for about 30 minutes, then put it in a cool place for at least 2 hours.

  4. 4

    Meanwhile roast pine nuts in a pan without fat, take them out and let them cool down. Clean and wash the green peppers. Finely puree both with 4 tablespoons of oil using a hand blender. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

  5. 5

    Peel the ginger and grate very finely. Warm the almond drink and ginger, froth up with a milk frother. Serve soup with ginger foam and paprika pesto. Sprinkle with flowers and cress as desired.
