Me and my husband once went out to eat in a restaurant in Manhattan. We decided to order something different, tomato basil soup. My husband liked it so much I decided to invent my own version which was not so hard given that it's a tomato basil soup! Enjoy!
You Need:
1 28 oz can of whole tomatoes
2 7 oz cans of tomato paste
1 cup of fresh basil leaves
3 cups water
salt and pepper according to liking
1 large onion chopped
3 cloves garlic
1 tbsp oil
Directions:
Pour the oil in to a big size pot and start a medium flame
Add the onions and garlic stir till aromatic
Pour in the whole tomatoes
Add the paste
Pour in the water and mix until the paste liquefies
add the basil leaves, salt and pepper and bring pot to a boil
Once boiling cover and move to a simmer for 30 minutes
For a smooth creamy soup blend until all pieces are gone
Enjoy this ravishing and I mean ravishing to the mouth soup!
* A sprinkle of parmesan cheese in each serving adds a great flavor!
