Description
A broth based flavorful tomato soup with Basil & Coriander
Ingredients
Scale
- 4–5 medium sized tomatoes (chopped)
- 1 tsp Roasted cumin powder
- 1 small carrot (chopped)
- 4 cloves of garlic (crushed and chopped)
- 1 small sized Apple (peeled and cut in cubes)
- 50 grams Coriander roots (don’t use the leaves)
- Salt according to taste
- 3/4 tsp Kashmiri chili powder
- Black pepper (dash of it)
- Olive oil to saute (2 tbsp)
- 1 tsp dried Basil
Instructions
- In a pan, heat oil and add chopped garlic. Allow the oil to absorb the garlic flavor.
- Saute the garlic slowly and after a few seconds add the tomatoes, carrot, apple, salt, Kashmiri chili powder.
- Add water and cook them for 45 minutes till the vegetables get tender and mashed.
- Add the chopped coriander roots with pepper and cook for another two minutes.
- Blend the mixture using a blender and strain with a soup strainer if you want a clear soup.
- Else, you can keep the soup chunky and thick without straining it (that’s my preference).
- Heat the soup again and add Basil and adjust the salt according to your taste.
- Serve hot!
