Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Chop Vegetables

    Chop the onion, celery, and carrot into small, even pieces. Mince the garlic and set them aside.

  2. 2

    Prepare Tomatoes

    Wash the plum tomatoes and chop them into quarters.

  3. 3

    Chop Herbs

    Chop the fresh basil and oregano finely and set aside.

Cooking

  1. 4

    Sauté the Base

    In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion, carrot, celery, and minced garlic. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are softened.

  2. 5

    Add Tomatoes and Broth

    Add the chopped plum tomatoes to the pot and stir for another 2 minutes. Pour in the vegetable broth and bring the mixture to a boil.

  3. 6

    Simmer the Soup

    Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and let the soup simmer uncovered for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.

  4. 7

    Season and Add Herbs

    After 20 minutes, stir in the chopped basil and oregano, along with salt and black pepper. Let it simmer for an additional 5 minutes.

  5. 8

    Blend the Soup

    Using an immersion blender, blend the soup until smooth. If you don’t have an immersion blender, carefully transfer the soup to a countertop blender in batches.

  6. 9

    Serve

    Taste the soup and adjust seasoning if necessary. Serve hot, garnished with additional fresh herbs if desired.
