Follow these simple steps to prepare your very own Cozy Roasted Poblano Soup:

1. Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. Roast the Poblano Peppers: Place the poblano peppers on a baking sheet and roast them in the oven for about 20-25 minutes, turning occasionally until they are charred and blistered.
3. Cool and Peel the Peppers: Remove the peppers from the oven and let them cool. Once cool enough to handle, peel off the skin and remove the seeds. Chop the peppers coarsely.
4. Sauté the Onion and Garlic: In a large pot, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
5. Add the Roasted Peppers: Stir in the chopped roasted poblano peppers into the pot and mix well.
6. Add Broth and Seasoning: Pour in the vegetable broth, add the cumin, salt, and pepper. Bring the mixture to a simmer and let it cook for about 15 minutes.
7. Blend the Soup: Use an immersion blender to blend the soup until it’s smooth and creamy. Alternatively, carefully transfer the mixture to a countertop blender in batches, blending until smooth and returning it to the pot.
8. Add Cream: Stir in the heavy cream and let the soup heat through for an additional 5 minutes. Adjust seasoning if needed.
9. Serve Hot: Remove from heat and allow it to cool slightly before ladling into bowls.

These steps will help you create an impressive Cozy Roasted Poblano Soup that’s sure to warm hearts and bellies alike.
