Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
- Place carrots and tomatoes in a large roasting dish. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon olive oil and season with kosher salt.
- Roast in the preheated oven until tender, about 30 minutes.
- While vegetables are roasting, heat remaining tablespoon olive oil in a stockpot over medium heat. Add onion and cook until softened and translucent, 3 to 4 minutes. Add celery and cook until softened, making sure onions do not burn, about 4 minutes. Pour in vegetable broth. Reduce heat to low and keep warm.
- Remove vegetables from the oven; add tomatoes directly to simmering broth. Let carrots cool for 5 minutes.
- Coarsely chop carrots and add to simmering broth. Season with additional kosher salt. Bring soup to a boil, reduce heat, and let simmer to intermingle flavors, about 20 minutes.
- Carefully transfer soup to a large blender, working in batches if necessary. Add 1/4 cup mint. Cover blender and hold lid down with a potholder. Pulse a few times before leaving on to blend to a fine, smooth consistency. Transfer soup to a large serving bowl or container.
- Chill soup in the refrigerator thoroughly, at least 2 hours. Garnish with 1 teaspoon mint leaves and a swirl of table cream before serving.

TOMATO, CHILLI AND MINT SOUP
This was inspired by a pot of soup I bought for my lunch from Delifonseca, a lovely deli and restuarant in Liverpool, UK. It was totally delicious. I tried to recreate it at home and while I didn't get it 100% the same I did make a really good approximation. I think it could be enhanced with a dollop of cream or creme fraiche if you want to but it's not vital.
