Tomato Recipe

Step 1: Prepare Ingredients

Gather all the ingredients: 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 medium onion (chopped), 2 garlic cloves (minced), 4 cups chopped tomatoes, 2 cups vegetable broth, 1 teaspoon sugar, salt, and pepper to taste, fresh basil for garnish.

Step 2: Sauté Onions and Garlic

In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add chopped onions and minced garlic. Sauté until onions are translucent, about 5 minutes.

Step 3: Add Tomatoes

Stir in the chopped tomatoes and cook for about 10 minutes, until they start to break down.

Step 4: Add Broth and Simmer

Pour in the vegetable broth, add sugar, salt, and pepper. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and let it simmer for 20 minutes.

Step 5: Blend the Soup

Use an immersion blender to blend the soup until smooth. Alternatively, you can transfer the soup to a blender in batches.

Step 6: Serve

Ladle the soup into bowls, garnish with fresh basil, and serve hot. Enjoy!
