Hi, can anyone help please?

I've previously found the recipe for a nice tomato soup on here but don't seem to be able to find it today. My daughter is not well and demanding tomato soup.

P.S. I've only got tinned tomatoes right now.

Many thanks

Pink.

Hi alionear,

We have a thread on homemade tomato soup which has lots of recipes that should help so I've added your thread to it.

You can also make it more interesting by putting in other herbs such as basil, which I quite like. And if you don't have/want to use tomato puree, a squirt of tomato ketchup would also do the trick.

I made tomato soup for the first time today and used this recipe, it was delicious, even my very fussy husband ate every drop.

Got this off the internet many years ago from one of the American frugal living websites (bluegarlic.net but they don't seem to be going any more) – it’s the best 'instant' tomato soup recipe I’ve tried. This is one of those where using a good olive oil makes a big difference, as its one of the main flavours.

2 Tbsp olive oil
2 cloves Garlic, finely chopped
1 small onion, finely chopped
½ teaspoon salt
2 tins tomatoes.
1 cup milk.
Saut! onions, garlic and salt in oil until soft, about ten minutes. Place tomatoes, along with the saut!ed onions and garlic into a blender of food processor. Puree until smooth. Return to saucepan, and heat slowly, stirring occasionally. When hot add the milk and stir it in. This only serves two so double or quadruple for a vat!
