Tomato soup recipe, how to make tomato soup | restaurant style;
tomato soup recipe with step by step photos – a soup which is popular in all indian restaurants. whenever i see the menu of most of the restaurants in india, i always get to see tomato soup along with the indo chinese soups.

i sometimes wonder why they don’t have other varieties of popular vegetable soups like minestrone soup, spinach soup or cream of mushroom or cauliflower soup.

i have had tomato soup in many places. some restaurants really make a good soup. whereas in some, the soup taste has been from sour to very sweet and… the consistency has been thin like a tomato rasam to very thick pasty consistency. so when i would have these soups, a thought in mind always crossed – i make a better tomato soup that what this restaurant has served me. am sure most of you would have had this thought crossed your mind too.

a few soups i have been making from my teens. this recipe belongs to that category. its my trademark recipe that you won’t find any where else on the internet and i am glad to share this one.
ew points to be kept in mind to make a really good tomato soup recipe:

    use fresh ripe red tomatoes. avoid using tomatoes which are sour or unripe.
    there is a balance of tanginess from the tomatoes and sweetness from the sugar and cream. make sure that the soup does not become very sweet. after all its tomato soup and should have the tang in it.
    the tomatoes are blanched & then pureed. blanching process i have shown in the step by step pics. (the blanching process i follow, is the way i had learnt in my home science cooking lab and have been using this method for years now. )
    you can skip the onions in the soup if you prefer, but do add the garlic.

i have already shared roasted tomato soup recipe.
lets start step by step restaurant style tomato soup recipe:

1. first rinse 4 medium to large tomatoes and keep aside. in a saucepan or pot take enough water so that the tomatoes can get immersed. add about 1 tsp salt to the water and bring the water to a rolling boil.
2. add the tomatoes and switch off the fire. close the saucepan or pot with the lid. let the tomatoes be immersed in the hot water for 20-30 minutes.

3. drain the tomatoes and let them become warm or cool down. due to the blanching process, the tomato peel shrinks and can be easily removed.

4. in the mean time, heat a frying pan/tava or pre heat the oven. place the bread in the pan and on a low flame toast the bread till its browned and crisp from both sides. if using the oven, place the bread in the oven at 200 degrees C and toast the bread till its browned and crisp.

5. make a smooth paste of 1 tsp cornflour with 2 tbsp water.

6. directly chop the tomatoes above the blender jar so that the juices drop directly inside the blender jar. if you cannot do this, then chop the tomatoes on a chopping board and add everything to the blender including the juices. blend the tomatoes to a smooth puree. there should be no bits or small chunks of tomatoes. it should be a really smooth puree.

7. melt 1 to 1.5 tbsp butter in a pan. add 1 bay leaf and saute for 5-6 seconds. add 2-3 garlic cloves and saute for about 10-12 seconds on a low flame.

8. add 1 small chopped onion and saute till the onions become translucent.

9. now add the tomato puree.

10. stir and then add 1 cup water, salt (as required) and pepper (as required).

11. on a low to medium flame, let the soup come to a gentle boil. stir the corn starch paste that we made earlier and add it to the soup.

12. stir well and simmer for 3-4 minutes till the soup thickens on a low flame. now add ½ tbsp sugar and stir. then add 1 tbsp cream.

13. stir the cream and simmer for a minute. switch off the stove.

14. chop the toasted bread into cubes.

15. pour the steaming hot tomato soup in soup bowls. add the bread croutons to the soup. you can also garnish the tomato soup with parsley or coriander leaves and dot with some cream if you prefer.
Tomato soup:
Ingredients

    2 carrots

    2 sticks celery

    2 medium onions

    2 cloves garlic

    olive oil

    2 organic chicken or vegetable stock cubes

    2 x 400 g tinned plum tomatoes

    6 large ripe tomatoes

    1 small bunch fresh basil

    sea salt

    freshly ground black pepper
Method

I bet you didn't know it was so easy to make your own tomato soup – this basic recipe won't take more than 45 minutes, depending on how fast you chop, so it's a great one to have up your sleeve. Give it your own twist by adding some of your favourite herbs and spices; try making it thick or thin, chunky or smooth – the possibilities are endless…

To make your soup:
Peel and roughly slice the carrots. Slice the celery. Peel and roughly chop the onions. Peel and slice the garlic. Put a large pan on a medium heat and add a couple of lugs of olive oil. Add all your chopped and sliced ingredients and mix together with a wooden spoon.

Cook for around 10 to 15 minutes with the lid askew, until the carrots have softened but are still holding their shape, and the onion is lightly golden.

Put the stock cubes into a jug or pan and pour in 1.5 litres of boiling water from the kettle. Stir until the stock cubes are dissolved, then add to the pan with your tinned and fresh whole tomatoes, including the green stalks that may still be attached to some of them (these give an amazing flavour – trust me!) Give it a good stir and bring to the boil. Reduce the heat and simmer for 10 minutes with the lid on. Meanwhile, pick your basil leaves.

To serve your soup:
Remove the pan from the heat. Season with salt and pepper and add the basil leaves. Using a hand blender or liquidizer, pulse the soup until smooth. Season again before dividing between your serving bowls.
