Winter has barley started and already I've gotten out all my soup recipes and made 2.
Last winter a friend e-mailed me a ton of soup recipes which I never got round to making due to my obsession with Woolworths slow roast tomato and marscapone soup. This winter i see they haven't brought it out which is a blessing because I made my own tomato soup.
This variation of tomato soup is not only extremely delicious and super easy but also almost fat free!
What you need:
A glug of olive oil
onion roughly chopped
1kg tomatoes roughly chopped
1 liter good veg stock - its always good to make your own and freeze them
2 Tbsp sugar
125g ready made sun dried tomato pesto - Robertsons has brought out a fantastic pesto range or Woolies always has
a few basil leaves finely chopped
salt and pepper to taste
- Fry onions in olive oil until almost translucent
- Add the tomatoes and stock and bring to the boil. Simmer for 40min.
- Remove from heat, use a stick blender or food processor to blend the mixture.
- Add the sugar and pesto and bring to the boil again, simmer for about 10 min.
- Add the basil leaves, salt and pepper,
If you want to serve this as a more substantial meal serve the soup with a grilled cheese sandwich.
Its that simple to have a delicious hot soup on those cold lazy winter days.
Whats your favorite winter warmer recipe?
