Preheat oven to 180°C. Lay tomatoes, cherry tomatoes, red bell pepper and garlic cloves on a large baking tray. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Roast the ingredients in the oven for about 30-40 minutes, until the tomatoes become tender and the skins start to peel off.
If you don't have an oven, roast the ingredients in a frying pan with olive oil. It should take around 10-15 minutes.
In another pan, caramelize the onions in some oil till browned.
If using an immersion blender, transfer the roasted tomatoes, bell pepper, garlic, and caramelized onions into a stockpot to blend. Otherwise, transfer all the ingredients to a blender to blend. Blend as finely as possible.
In the same pot, heat the blended ingredients over medium fire. Add water/chicken stock and heavy cream. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Once the soup is well mixed, turn off the heat.
Strain the soup to remove any residue (there will be quite a lot from the tomato skins) before serving. Garnish with cream, black pepper, cherry tomatoes and torched cheese cubes if you wish to.
