directions
- To Roast the Peppers:Cut the insides out of the peppers so that you have large flat pieces of peppers. Lay the peppers skin side up on a pan and lightly oil them. Roast the peppers in the oven at 350 degrees for about 25 minutes. Place peppers in a zipper top bag and allow to sit for several minutes. (The steam will help seperate the skins from the peppers). Remove the skins from the peppers and roughly chop them.
- For the Soup:Heat olive oil and butter in the pan.
- Add shallots, and cook for a few minutes.
- Add chopped potatoes, roasted peppers, and vegetable stock.
- Season liberally with salt and pepper.
- Cook mixture until the potatoes are tender.
- Use an imersion blender to puree the soup.
- Stir in sour cream and dill.
- Serve! :).
