Equipment

  • Immersion blender

Ingredients
 

  • 3 tbsp butter
  • ½ large white onion chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 canned tomatoes 28 oz
  • 1 tbsp tomato paste
  • 1 bouillon cube and 2 cups water or 2 cups vegetable broth/chicken broth
  • 1 tsp sugar
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ½ tsp black pepper
  • ½ tsp paprika
  • ½ cup heavy cream

Instructions
 

  • Heat the butter in a large pot over medium heat.
  • Add the onion and garlic and sauté until the onion is translucent, about 2,3 minutes.
  • Add the canned tomatoes, tomato paste, sugar, salt, black pepper and paprika. Break up the tomatoes with the back of a spoon and stir to combine all the ingredients.
  • Add water and bouillon cube or broth. Bring the soup to a boil and then reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for 15 minutes.
  • Use an immersion blender or transfer the soup to a blender and blend until smooth.
  • Return the soup to the pot and gradually stir in the heavy cream. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
  • Serve the tomato soup with grilled cheese sandwiches or crusty bread.

Notes

  • Gradually add the cream while stirring the soup to prevent any curdling or soup separating. Add a pinch of baking soda if you prefer to prevent this. You can warm the soup after adding the cream but don't boil.
Storing - transfer the soup to an airtight container and keep it in the fridge for 2 to 3 days.
Reheat - in the microwave or in the stove top on a low heat until warm.
Freeze - don't the add the cream. Once the soup cools, transfer it to freezer safe containers and freeze. Can be frozen up to 3 months. Thaw in the fridge overnight. Reheat and add the cream at the end.
