Home made tomato soup

 

After a very lazy morning, I decided to rob my sisters vegetable garden of her abundance of tomato’s,          to make tomato soup

This is a super easy recipe, all you need is 

- 4lbs of tomatoes

- 6 rashers smoked bacon

- 1large onion

- 2 carrots

- 2 celery sticks

- 2 red peppers

- 2 vegetable stock cubes

- 1 tablespoon tomato purée

- 50mls double cream 

- salt and pepper 

To make the soup simply dice up the onion and bacon and fry off on a little oil.

Add in diced carrot, celery and red peppers and cook off till soft 

Dice up whole tomatoes and add them to the pot along with 200mls water and your stock cubes, and salt and pepper, bring to the boil and let simmer for at least 30 minutes.

Once cooked, blend your soup with an Emerson blender, sieve through if your want it super smooth and add your double cream.

Serve with crusty bread 🍞 

Now that the weather is getting colder, warm soups like this a must in my kitchen, and when they are home made they are all the better 💕
