Ingredients

Method

In Dutch oven or heavy-bottomed saucepan, heat oil over medium heat; cook onion, thyme and garlic, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 6 minutes. Add red peppers, salt and pepper; cook, stirring occasionally, until red peppers are slightly softened, about 5 minutes. 

Stir in broth and 1 cup water; bring to boil. Reduce heat and simmer, stirring occasionally, until red peppers are tender, about 20 minutes. Let cool for 5 minutes. Discard thyme.

Working in batches, purée mixture in blender until smooth. Return to Dutch oven; stir in vinegar. Cook over medium heat until warm. Divide among serving bowls; stir in yogurt (if using).
