Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Heat Olive Oil

    In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat.

  2. 2

    Sauté Vegetables

    Add the chopped onion, minced garlic, diced carrot, and diced celery to the pot. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are soft and the onion is translucent.

  3. 3

    Add Tomatoes and Broth

    Stir in the crushed canned tomatoes and vegetable broth. Bring the mixture to a boil.

  4. 4

    Simmer

    Once boiling, reduce the heat and let it simmer for 20 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.

Blending and Finishing

  1. 5

    Blend the Soup

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

  2. 6

    Add Cream and Season

    Return the blended soup to the pot, then stir in the heavy cream, chopped fresh basil, salt, and black pepper. Heat over low heat until warmed through, about 5 minutes.

  3. 7

    Serve

    Ladle the creamy tomato soup into bowls and garnish with additional fresh basil if desired. Serve hot.
