Ingredients
2 pounds yellow tomatoes, chopped
1 medium yellow onion, chopped
3 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 cups vegetable broth
1/2 cup heavy cream
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
Instructions
Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.
Add chopped onion and cook for 5 minutes until softened.
Add minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
Add chopped yellow tomatoes to the pot and cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until tomatoes break down.
Pour in vegetable broth, then add salt, black pepper, dried thyme, and smoked paprika.
Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes.
Remove the pot from heat and use an immersion blender to puree the soup until smooth. Alternatively, carefully transfer the soup in batches to a blender and puree until smooth.
Return the pureed soup to low heat and stir in heavy cream and fresh lemon juice.
Heat gently for 3-5 minutes without boiling, stirring occasionally.
Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary, then serve warm.
