This fresh tomato soup recipe is suitable for any occasion. This homemade tomato soup recipe is easy to make, cheaper, much more nutritious and tastier than tomato soup from the tin. The best made in the summer when tomatoes are in season and the most flavoursome.
1kg (2 ¼ lb) very ripe vine-grown tomatoes with their stalks for extra flavour, roughly chopped
2 tbsp olive oil
6 cloves of garlic finely chopped
1 fresh chilli or ¼ tsp of chilli flakes
Basil to garnish
For the Tapenade:
30g (1oz) capers, drained and rinsed
10 black pitted olives
30g (1 oz) drained oil-packed Sun Blush tomatoes marinated in oregano and garlic
3 cloves of garlic
Ground black pepper
Making the Tapenade:
Combine capers, olives, Sun Blush Tomatoes, marinated oil and garlic cloves into a food processor and pulse 3 or 4 times. Stir in black pepper to taste.
Making the Soup:
1. Put the olive oil, garlic and chilli pepper into a large saucepan and set over a low heat for a few seconds until the garlic begins to sizzle. Add the chopped tomatoes with their star like stalks and turn over for just few minutes until the tomato juice begins to run.
2. Tip the mixture into a food processor and add the tapenade. Blitz until finely chopped but not completely smooth. Pass through a sieve into a clean pan, squeezing out as much liquid as you can.
3. Heat gently until warm but not hot – you want to retain the fresh flavour of the tomatoes.
Season the soup to taste, serve it in the warm bowls garnished with chopped basil.
