Main Ingredients

Method

Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Sauté the Aromatics

    In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute until fragrant.

  2. 2

    Add Tomatoes and Broth

    Pour in the canned diced tomatoes (with their juice) and vegetable broth. Stir to combine and bring the mixture to a boil.

  3. 3

    Season the Soup

    Add salt, black pepper, dried basil, and sugar to the pot. Reduce heat to low and let the soup simmer for about 20 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

  4. 4

    Blend the Soup

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

  5. 5

    Add Cream

    Stir in the heavy cream and heat the soup over low heat until warmed through. Do not bring to a boil.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Taste and adjust seasoning, if necessary. Serve hot, garnished with fresh basil if desired.
