Roasted tomato soup (TM)

This recipe has been adapted for the Thermomix from a Come Dine With Me recipe. The orginal is quite chunky but here I have made it into a smooth, thick soup. I have also tweaked around a bit with the ingredients.

See Variations below for the conventional method of making this.
