tomato basil soup recipe Basil Oil Spiral And Cream Dot
- Total Time: 45 minutes
- Yield: 6 servings 1x
- Diet: Vegetarian, Gluten-Free
Description
This creamy tomato basil soup is perfect for cozy family dinners and elegant gatherings, delivering a heartwarming experience that’s ideal for quick weeknights. It is made with quality ingredients and promises a consistently delicious result.
Ingredients
- 28 oz canned San Marzano tomatoes
- 0.5 cup fresh basil, packed and chopped (or 2 tsp dried)
- 4 cups vegetable broth
- 1 medium onion, diced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 0.5 cup heavy cream
- 2 Tbsp olive oil
- Salt, to taste
- Pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Sauté Aromatics: In a large pot, heat 2 Tbsp olive oil over medium heat. Add diced onion and cook until softened and translucent (about 5-7 minutes). Stir in minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
- Simmer Flavors: Pour in canned tomatoes and vegetable broth. Season with salt and pepper. Bring to a gentle simmer, then reduce heat to low, cover, and cook for 20-25 minutes to meld flavors.
- Blend Smooth: Carefully blend the soup until silky smooth, using an immersion blender directly in the pot until no chunks remain.
- Finish And Serve: Stir in 0.5 cup heavy cream and fresh chopped basil. Simmer for another 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until heated through and basil aroma infuses the dish.
Notes
This soup can be easily adapted for various diets, including dairy-free (using full-fat coconut milk or cashew cream) or higher protein (adding white beans or lentils). For a quick meal, use an immersion blender for minimal cleanup and consider pre-chopped aromatics. A pinch of red pepper flakes can be added with aromatics for a subtle kick.
