Steps
- 1. Boil15 min
Put water in a saucepan to boil the tomatoes. Once the tomatoes are washed, cut each one into four pieces on one side only, and bring them to a boil. Important: Do not discard the water you used to boil the tomatoes. Once they are thoroughly cooked, peel the tomatoes by removing the skin, and let them rest for a while.
- 2. Cook the rest23 min
In another saucepan, add your olive oil, then add minced garlic, onion, and carrot—all finely diced. After 10 minutes, add your tomato, which you’ve also peeled and diced. To add more flavor, add the spices—but if you don’t have any, it’s not necessary. Keep stirring everything until you see that the mixture is releasing its juices.
- 3. Blend5 min
Add everything you cooked in your saucepan to your blender, along with the leftover water from boiling the tomatoes.
- 4. Reheat
Put it back in your saucepan; now you can season it to your liking.
- 5. Plating3 min
After you've heated your soup and seasoned it, serve it and add a tablespoon of chopped basil for extra flavor. You can also add cream to your soup and serve it with some bread.
