Tomato and Basil Soup
Nothing better than this Tomato and basil soup for the winter - but how about a cold tomato soup on a hot summer's day?
INGREDIENTS
1 Tbsp (15ml) Oil
1 Onion
2 Garlic Cloves
1 Carrot
1 Sweet Potato
2 Tbsp (30ml) Tomato Paste
2 Cans (410g) Tomatoes
3 Tbsp (45ml) Sun-dried Tomatoes
2 Cups (500ml) Vegetable Stock
1 Can (380g) NESTLÉ Ideal Evaporated Milk
8 Basil Leaves
Salt
Pepper
NESTLÉ Dessert & Cooking Cream
Parsley
METHOD
Heat the oil in a large pan. Add onions and garlic and fry over a low heat for 10 minutes. Add the carrot, sweet potato, tomato paste, tomatoes, sundried tomatoes, and vegetable stock. Cook for 20-25 minutes.
Stir in the evaporated milk, basil and season with salt and pepper. Remove from the heat and use a stick blender to blend or purée the soup in a blender. Reheat the soup in a pan.
Serve with any or all of the garnishes: a drizzle of cream, chopped sundried tomatoes, basil leaves and chopped herbs.
