Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Tomatoes: Wash the tomatoes thoroughly and remove the stems. Cut them into quarters.
- Onion: Peel the onion and chop it roughly.
- Garlic: Peel the garlic cloves and slice them in half.
- Chives: Finely chop the chives and set aside.
- In a medium saucepan, heat the 2 teaspoons of olive oil over medium heat.
- Add the chopped onion and sauté for about 5 minutes, until it becomes soft and translucent.
- Add the sliced garlic and sauté for another 1-2 minutes, until fragrant.
- Add the quartered tomatoes to the saucepan. Cook them for about 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the tomatoes break down and become soft.
- Carefully transfer the tomato mixture to a blender. If the mixture is too hot, let it cool for a few minutes first to avoid any accidents.
- Add the 1/2 cup of vegetable broth to the blender.
- Blend on high until the soup is smooth and creamy. If necessary, blend in batches to avoid overfilling the blender.
4. Seasoning and Serving the Soup:
- Pour the blended soup back into the saucepan and heat over medium-low heat to warm it up.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- While the soup is warming, preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Slice the baguette into thin rounds.
- Place the baguette slices on a baking sheet and lightly brush them with olive oil.
- Toast the baguette slices in the preheated oven for about 5-7 minutes, or until they are golden and crispy.
- Ladle the hot tomato soup into bowls.
- Garnish each bowl with a generous sprinkle of grated Parmesan cheese and the finely chopped chives.
- Serve the toasted baguette slices alongside the soup.
Tips:
- For a smoother soup, strain the blended mixture through a fine mesh sieve before reheating.
- Roast the tomatoes and garlic in the oven for 20 minutes at 400°F (200°C) to add a deeper, richer flavor to your soup.
- Use a high-quality vegetable broth to enhance the taste of the soup.
- If you prefer a little spice, add a pinch of red pepper flakes while cooking the onions and garlic.
- Garnish with additional fresh herbs like basil or parsley for added freshness.
- For a creamier texture, stir in a splash of heavy cream or a dollop of Greek yogurt before serving.
Tomato Blender Soup is a delightful and nutritious choice for any meal. It's an easy and quick recipe that delivers a rich, comforting flavor. The combination of fresh tomatoes, garlic, and onions, finished with chives and parmesan, makes it simply irresistible. Enjoy this soup with a side of toasted baguette for a satisfying and wholesome experience.
