Recipe: Tomato soup

Prep and cooking time: 45 mins

Serves: 4

Ingredients

  • 1.5 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 large carrots, chopped
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 x 400g tins whole or chopped tomatoes
  • 2 x 400g tins cannellini beans
  • 700ml water or vegetable stock
  • 300 ml single cream
  • Handful fresh basil, to serve

Method

  1. Add the oil to a large saucepan, over medium heat.
  2. Add the carrots and onions, and cook until softened.
  3. Add the garlic and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes.
  4. Add the tomatoes and lower the heat to low/medium. Cook for 25 minutes to reduce the acidity of the tomatoes.

  6. Turn off the heat and add the cream, transfer to a blender or use an immersion blender until smooth.
