FRESH TOMATO SOUP DISH

What you'll need

  • 4 cups chopped fresh tomatoes
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 4 cloves garlic
  • 1 large slice of onion
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons white sugar, or to taste
  • 1 teaspoon salt, or to taste

How to do it!

  1. Combine tomatoes, chicken broth, garlic cloves, and a large slice of onion in a stockpot over medium heat. Bring to a boil, and gently simmer for about 20 minutes to blend flavors.

  2. Remove from heat and run the mixture through a food mill into a large bowl, or pan. Discard any stuff left over in the food mill.

  3. Melt butter over medium heat in the now empty stockpot. Stir in flour to make a roux by cooking, whisking constantly, until mixture turns medium brown.

  4. Gradually whisk in a bit of the tomato mixture to prevent lumps from forming, then stir in the rest.

  5. Season with sugar and salt to taste.

  6. Serve hot and enjoy!
