Make
- Heat oven to 425F / 218C. Bake tomatoes for 15 to 20 minutes.
- While oven is heating, heat a Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add olive oil and then garlic, leeks, and thyme to heated oil with a sprinkle of salt. Saute for ~2 minutes.
- Add white wine and saute for another minute.
- Fold in potatoes and zucchini and cover with broth. Bring to a boil and then simmer uncovered for 6 to 8 minutes, until potatoes and zucchini can be easily pierced with a knife.
- While soup is simmering and tomatoes are baking, fry eggs in a large non-stick skillet or frying pan (if using a griddle, set griddle to 325F / 163C). Heat pan over medium heat and then add cooking oil. Crack eggs into heated oil (you may have to work in batches) and cook until the whites are set. If you like your eggs less runny, cover the pan with a lid and cook until eggs are at the consistency you want. Top each baked tomato with a fried egg. Repeat until all eggs are cooked.
- Use an immersion blender to blend soup until smooth (or puree in batches in a blender). If you think the soup is too thick, you can add more broth or water. Finish with lemon juice and season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Divide soup into bowls and serve with a dollop of leftover pesto and creme fraiche (if using).
- Enjoy fried egg topped baked tomatoes with soup!
