Equipment

  • Immersion Blender A regular blender with open top can be used in place of the immersion blender. Ensure the top is open so the steam can escape. Check the notes for a link to the immserion blender we use!

Ingredients

  • 28 oz San Marzano tomatoes can
  • 2 carrots medium, chopped
  • 2 red bell pepper
  • 6 oz tomato paste
  • 18 oz coconut milk full fat
  • ½ cup water
  • 1 tbsp garlic powder
  • 2 tsp basil
  • ½ tsp MSG
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ½ tsp pepper
  • 3 tbsp granulated sugar
  • chili oil Gochugaru (Korean chili flakes) preferred, see notes
  • red food coloring or beet juice for desired color

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 500F (260C). Roast the red peppers on a foil-lined baking sheet for about 15 minutes, flipping the peppers halfway through. Once charred, remove from the oven and wrap in the foil to steam for 5 minutes.
  • Unwrap the peppers once cooled. Remove the stem, seeds, and charred skin.
  • Chop the carrots, ensuring they are chopped relatively small so they cook quicker.
  • Add the red peppers, San Marzano tomatoes, tomato paste, carrots, coconut milk, and water to the pot.
  • Add the garlic powder, basil, salt, pepper, MSG, and sugar to the pot.
  • Simmer for around 15 minutes.
  • Remove the pot from heat. Use an immersion blender to purée the soup partially, then add in your red food coloring if desired. Purée the soup until smooth.
  • Return the pot to simmer on medium heat for at least 10 more minutes, longer to develop more flavor.
  • Top with chili oil, I used both the oil and chili flakes.
  • Serve to your favorite vampire, enjoy!

Notes

I used homemade chili oil made with Gochugaru (Korean Chili Flakes) for garnish, however any chili oil should work. Gochugaru have a much milder flavor and are a lot less spicy than a lot of chili flakes, so it did not overpower the dish.
