First, halve the bell peppers and chili peppers lengthwise, remove the seeds, and halve the tomatoes. Arrange them on a baking sheet lined with baking paper (inside down) and bake in the oven at 200°C (top/bottom heat) on the middle rack for about 15 minutes. Meanwhile, prepare a mirepoix. To do this, cut the carrots, celery, and onions into approximately 8 mm cubes. In a large pan, fry them in about 3 tablespoons of oil over high heat, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are lightly browned on the outside. Meanwhile, chop the garlic and fry for another 3 minutes towards the end. Add the bell peppers and tomato paste, mix well, and fry briefly. Then deglaze with a splash of white wine and a little stock and reduce the heat to low. Remove the bell peppers, chili peppers, and tomatoes from the oven and transfer them to a tall container. Add the spices to this container as well. Pour over approximately 200 ml of stock and puree using a hand blender. Finally, pour the pureed soup base over the roasted vegetables, add the remaining broth, and bring everything back to a boil, stirring occasionally. Season to taste and enjoy. If you like it hotter or less spicy, add more or less pepperoni and chili powder. Add bread to taste. Tip: If you’re not vegan, you can refine the soup with cream or sour cream at the end. If you’re not vegetarian, you can add a few finely chopped sausages, such as Debrecen sausages; for even more roasted flavor, you can also fry them briefly.
