This is another quick recipe to make for the family. Our family loves to eat this before dinner. We used ready tomato puree for that bold flavor, allowing for a quick and easy version of a usually long process.
Ingredients:
5 packets of tomato puree (135gms each) - roughly one packet per person
2 tbsps of olive oil
2-3 pods of garlic chopped fine
1/2 a large onion chopped fine
1 tomato chopped fine
3 tsps of salt( or to taste)
700ml of hot water
fresh basil leaves
1/2 tsp of sugar
drizzle of cream to serve
Method:
Heat oil in a pan. Add in the onions and garlic. Saute till translucent. Add in the tomato puree.
Cook on low heat for a few minutes.
Add in hot water. Give it a good stir. Lower the heat and cook for a few minutes.
Add in 3 tsps of salt or as per your taste preference.
Next add in the sugar to help balance out the sourness from the tomatoes.
Add in the chopped tomato. This will add a nice texture to the soup.
Garnish with roughly torn basil leaves.
Drizzle with cream at the time of serving over each bowl.
