Recipe: Tomato & Basil Soup

February 8, 2012

Summary: This is a simple and easy homemade version of the comfort classic – tinned tomato soup. A bowl of this and a toasted sandwich will soothe your soul. The recipe specifies tinned tomatoes but a kilo of fresh tomatoes skinned and chopped works wonderfully.

Ingredients

  • 1 tblsp olive oil
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 2 (400g) tins of crushed tomatoes
  • 1-2 cup strong stock
  • 1 tsp sugar
  • Salt
  • Pepper
  • 1 bunch basil, leaves chopped

Instructions

  1. Add the oil, onions and garlic to a large saucepan. Fry for a few minutes until the onion softens.
  2. Add the tomatoes and stock until the soup is your desired thickness. Season well with salt and pepper and add the sugar. Cook for 10-15 mins, stirring occasionally.
  3. Turn the heat off and stir through the basil. Blend with a stick blender till smooth.
  4. Serve with a sandwich or good crusty bread.
