Former MP, Edwina Currie hopes things get off to a smooth start with this roasted tomato soup for Come Dine With Me Celebrity Special
Serves 4 Ingredients
1. Preheat the oven to 200ºC/gas mark 6. Pour a good slug of olive oil onto a large baking tray and swish around until coated. Tip the tomatoes on top and scatter with the onion, garlic bulb halves, peppercorns, thyme, bay leaf and a good sprinkling of rock salt. Drizzle with 2 tbsp olive oil. 2. Put in the oven and roast for about 30 minutes until the tomato skins split and slightly blacken and the onions soften and lightly brown. Remove from the oven and tip into a bowl with the sun-dried tomatoes, coriander and basil. Turn to lightly toss all the ingredients, then leave to cool for a few minutes. (The colour of the final soup depends on the ripeness of the tomatoes and how many sun-dried ones you use – up to you.) 3. When the vegetables are at room temperature, remove the thyme stalks and bay leaf. Put all the rest into a food processor or blender, spooning out the softened garlic and discarding the papery skins. Puree until as smooth as possible. You may need to remove the lid and push the mixture down a couple of times. 4. Pass through a fine sieve into a saucepan - this bit is hard work! Add vegetable stock until the soup reaches the right consistency. Adjust seasoning to taste and stir over a low heat until hot. Serve in warmed bowls and finish by swirling with spoonfuls of cream.

Like the Come Dine With Me contestants, you could be creating a culinary delight or dining disaster, so switch on your ovens and be bold.

With so many Helen Keller's quotes that: All the world is full of suffering. It is also full of overcoming. Alone we can do so little; together we can do so much. Although the world is full of suffering, it is also full of the overcoming of it. As selfishness and complaint pervert the mind, so love with its joy clears and sharpens the vision. As the eagle was killed by the arrow winged with his own feather, so the hand of the world is wounded by its own skill. Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than outright exposure. The fearful are caught as often as the bold.
