Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450°F. Arrange tomatoes (cut side up), bell peppers, onion and garlic cloves on large baking sheet. Drizzle oil over; sprinkle generously with salt and pepper. Roast vegetables until brown and tender, turning peppers and onion occasionally, about 40 minutes. Remove from oven. Cool.
• Transfer vegetables and any accumulated juices to processor. Add thyme leaves. Puree soup, gradually adding enough water to thin soup to desired consistency. Chill until cold, about 3 hours. (Can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cover and keep refrigerated. If soup becomes too thick, thin with water to desired consistency.)
• Ladle soup into bowls. Top each with 1 tablespoon ricotta cheese. Garnish with thyme sprigs, if desired.

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large saucepan.Add the onion and garlic and cook, stirring, for 3 minutes or until soft. Add capsicum and cook, stirring, for another 5 minutes.
• Add the tomato and stock and bring to the boil. Reduce heat to medium and simmer, uncovered, for 20 minutes or until the capsicum softens.
• Use a food processor or hand-held stick blender to blend until smooth. Return to the saucepan.
• Add the cream and stir over low heat until hot. (If the soup isn't to be eaten all at once-only add the cream to the portion you will be using. The soup will keep better in the fridge if the cream has not been added and heated. Just have a good guess at the quantity of cream to be added).
• Season with salt and pepper to taste.
