Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Vegetables

    Chop the ripe tomatoes, onion, garlic, carrot, and celery into small pieces for even cooking.

  2. 2

    Wash the Basil

    Rinse the fresh basil leaves under cold water and gently pat them dry with a paper towel.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Sauté Vegetables

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

  2. 4

    Add Garlic

    Add the minced garlic to the pot and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

  3. 5

    Combine Tomatoes and Broth

    Stir in the chopped tomatoes, vegetable broth, sugar, salt, and black pepper. Bring the mixture to a boil.

  4. 6

    Simmer the Soup

    Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and let the soup simmer for about 20-25 minutes, or until the tomatoes are soft and flavors meld.

  5. 7

    Blend the Soup

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

  6. 8

    Add Fresh Basil

    Stir in the fresh basil leaves and let the soup simmer for an additional 5 minutes.

Serving

  1. 9

    Serve Hot

    Ladle the hot tomato basil soup into bowls and serve immediately. Optionally, garnish with additional basil leaves or a drizzle of olive oil.
