Preparation

  1. 1

    Chop the Vegetables

    Finely dice the onion, carrot, and celery. Mince the garlic cloves. Cut the tomatoes into quarters.

Cooking

  1. 2

    Sauté the Aromatics

    In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion, carrot, and celery. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are softened. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes.

  2. 3

    Add the Tomatoes and Broth

    Add the quartered tomatoes to the pot along with the vegetable broth. Stir to combine.

  3. 4

    Season the Soup

    Add salt, black pepper, sugar, dried basil, and dried oregano to the pot. Stir well to incorporate all the flavors.

  4. 5

    Simmer the Soup

    Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for about 20-25 minutes, until the tomatoes are fully softened.

  5. 6

    Blend the Soup

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