Ingredients
  

Soup Base
  • 2 cups tomatoes chopped
  • 1/2 cup onion chopped
  • 1 tbsp oil
  • 1 cup vegetable broth
Flavor
  • 1/2 cup cream
  • 1/4 cup basil leaves
  • 2 cloves garlic minced

Equipment

  • Large Pot
  • Blender
  • Knife
  • Cutting Board
  • Spoon

Method
 

  1. Heat oil and sauté onion and garlic until soft and fragrant.
  2. Add tomatoes and cook until softened and slightly thick.
  3. Pour in broth and simmer to blend flavors evenly.
  4. Blend until smooth, then stir in cream and basil.
  5. Serve warm with silky, balanced texture.

Notes

Blend longer for smoother texture or leave slightly chunky for variation. Avoid overcooking to keep fresh flavor. Cool before blending for safety. Customize with spices or dairy-free cream. Store in fridge and reheat gently. Freeze in portions for longer storage.
