Ingredients
TOMATO CREAM SOUP INGREDIENTS
- 3 potatoes, roughly chopped
- 2 carrots, roughly chopped
- 5 medium-size fresh tomatoes, roughly chopped
- 5 cans whole peeled tomatoes in tomato juice, ~500 g per can
- 1 medium-size onion, roughly chopped
- 1 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
- 1/2 cup raw cashew nuts
- 1/10 tsp ground cayenne pepper
- 1/2 tsp freshly ground black pepper
- 1/2 tsp sea salt
- 1 tbsp oregano
- 1 tbsp basil
BASIL DRESSING
- 30 g frozen basil
- 4 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
- 2 tsp nutritional yeast
- 2 tsp lemon juice
- 4 tbsp almond milk
ALTERNATIVE DRESSING
- coconut milk
- chopped fresh basil
Instructions
- Using a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat and sauté the onion until it reaches a light brown colour.
- Stir in potatoes and carrots and cook for 3 more minutes.
- Add the fresh tomatoes and keep cooking in medium heat for five more minutes stirring occasionally.
- Add the canned tomatoes and, using a wooden spatula, slightly crash the tomatoes.
- Bring it to a boil and then reduce the heat to a simmer and let it simmer covered with a lid for 15-20 minutes stirring occasionally.
- Using an immersion blender, blend until smooth inside the pot.
- Then add all the seasoning and let it continue simmering for 5 more minutes. Blend again.
- For the basil dressing: In a blender or food processor, combine the frozen basil, olive oil, nutritional yeast, lemon juice and almond milk and blend until smooth.
- Pour the tomato cream soup into individual bowls.
- Drizzle the basil dressing on top of the soup. If you don’t fancy a basil dressing, you could drizzle some coconut milk on top and garnish with chopped fresh basil. Both options are delicious but we personally prefer the basil dressing. Enjoy!
- Store in the refrigerator.
