Making tomato soup can be demeaning as it seems so easy yet so hard. I’ve tried a couple of recipes but they weren’t working for me. I had to come up with an easy one which can be used by almost everyone.
Tomato Soup Recipe
Ingredients
For 2 servings
1 medium sized onion (finely chopped)
3 cloves of garlic (grated)
2 large tomatoes (grated)
50g tomato paste
A bunch of dhania (finely chopped)
3 squeezes of tomato sauce
1tsp white vinegar
1tsp salt
1tsp black pepper
1tsp paprika
1tsp mixed spices
2 beef 1royco cubes
1 serving spoon veg oil
350ml water
Method of preparation
On a heated cooking pot, add oil.
Add onions. Let them cook for a minute.
Add garlic paste. Sautee for another minute.
Add dhania stalks. Sautee for a minute or until the onions & garlic start browning. At this point, there’s a sweet aroma that’s irresistible!
Add grated tomatoes. Cover & let them cook for 2 minutes.
Add tomato paste, tomato sauce, salt, vinegar & all the spices. Cover & cook for 3 minutes on medium low heat.
Add water & cook on low heat for 15-20 minutes or until the soup has thickened.
Sprinkle dhania leaves. Switch off the source of heat.
Allow the soup to cool for 5-10 minutes before blending. This is to avoid burns & minor accidents in the kitchen.
Once it has cooled, pour in a blender, and cover the head of the blender with a kitchen towel to avoid spillage & unnecessary accidents. Blend until smooth/fine.
Serve with rice or naan bread.
