Time 10m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 tablespoons unsalted butter, olive oil (we used a combination of olive oil mostly and solid coconut oil) or 4 tablespoons coconut oil (we used a combination of olive oil mostly and solid coconut oil)
2 medium yellow onions, thinly sliced
1 teaspoon sea salt, plus more to taste
3 teaspoons curry powder
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon chili flakes
2 (28 ounce) cans whole tomatoes (pref. fire-roasted)
6 cups vegetable broth
1 (14 ounce) can coconut milk

Steps:

  • Stove top: In a large pot over medium heat melt the butter/oil. Add the onions and salt, and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions soften - 10 minutes approximately.
  • Stir in the curry powder, coriander, cumin, and chile flakes, and cook just until the spices are fragrant and toasty - stirring constantly at this point about 30 seconds.
  • Stir in the tomatoes, the juices from the cans, and broth.
  • Simmer for fifteen minutes or so, then puree with a hand blender until smooth. If you'd like your soup even a bit thinner or with more of a coconut taste- you can thin it with more broth or more coconut milk. Taste and adjust with more salt if necessary.
  • Crock Pot: Follow directions #1 and #2 above. After sauteeing the onion and spices, pour that mixture plus the tomatoes and juices and broth into the crock pot. Simmer on HIGH for about 1 1/2 hours then LOW for about 3 hours longer.
  • About 5 minutes before serving, I poured in about 5 ounces of the coconut milk. Stir and taste. Add more coconut milk for a more pronounced taste, as desired.
  • Serving suggestions from the Apartment Therapy website: any or all of the following: cooked brown rice, lemon wedges, toasted almond slices, pan-fried paneer, fresh cilantro, parsley, thyme or oregano, a poached egg.
  • For the test recipe, we added to each serving of soup about 1/4 cup scoop short grain brown rice, a tablespoon or so (dollop) of thick coconut milk, fresh cilantro and lemon wedges.

SIMPLE TOMATO SOUP



Simple Tomato Soup image

This is my go-to tomato soup recipe. It's so easy and delicious. It's easily made vegan (if you use margarine instead of butter or 2 tablespoons of olive oil), ready in 30 minutes, and I give leftovers to my kids for lunch. If you like, you can add cream, but my family likes it the way it is. I usually serve it with rosemary bread for dunking.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe, flavorful tomatoes: The quality of your tomatoes will greatly impact the flavor of your soup. Look for tomatoes that are deep red and free of blemishes.
  • Roast the tomatoes before simmering: Roasting the tomatoes concentrates their flavor and gives them a slightly smoky taste. This step is optional, but it's highly recommended.
  • Use a variety of herbs and spices: Don't be afraid to experiment with different herbs and spices to create a tomato soup that's perfectly to your taste. Some good options include basil, oregano, thyme, garlic, onion, and chili powder.
  • Add some cream or coconut milk for a richer flavor: If you like a creamy tomato soup, you can add some cream or coconut milk at the end of cooking. This will also help to balance out the acidity of the tomatoes.
  • Serve with your favorite toppings: Tomato soup is delicious on its own, but it's also great with a variety of toppings. Some popular options include croutons, grated Parmesan cheese, chopped fresh basil, and a dollop of sour cream.

Conclusion:

With its fresh, vibrant flavor and versatility, tomato soup is a classic dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. Whether you're looking for a quick and easy weeknight meal or a comforting soup to warm you up on a cold day, tomato soup is a great choice. So next time you're in the mood for a delicious and healthy soup, give this simple tomato soup recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
