I am not feeling very well today and my body is telling me that I need to eat and the only thing that even sounds appetizing is my homemade tomato soup.
I know I have shared my recipe with you a few years ago but it is still my favourite and worth sharing again.
Cream of Tomato Soup
3 cups peeled, chopped tomatoes (2 large cans of Marsala tomatoes in winter)
2 cups of water 1 small minced onion
2 cloves minced garlic
1- 5 1/2 ounce can of tomato paste
2 teaspoons of sugar
2 teaspoons of salt
1/2 teaspoon of basil leaves dried or 1/2 stalk of fresh basil chopped fine
1/4 teaspoon ground thyme
a pinch of pepper
mix together and bring to boil stirring occasionally
reduce heat and simmer 10 minutes
In small saucepan make white sauce with 2 tablespoons butter, 2 tablespoons flour and 1 cup of milk or cream
once made add a ladle of the tomato mixture and mix together then gradually add white sauce to hot tomato mixture stirring constantly.
Once heated through, serve and enjoy!
