Home-made Tomato Soup and Tea in a China cup...



I thought I'd share Olly's recipe for chunky tomato and onion soup...
  • 1.5 pints of water
  • 1.5 vegetable stock cubes
  • 0.5 cup of tomato juice (from a carton)
  • 2 tins of ASDA's chopped tomatoes with garlic (if not available - 2 tins of chopped tomatoes and 1 clove of garlic)
  • 2 small / medium onions
  • handful of brown rice (optional)
  1. Boil 1.5 pints of water... add to stock in a big pan.
  2. Add 2 tins of tomatoes to pan along with the tomato juice.
  3. Dice onions to preference then add to pan.
  4. Add rice.
  5. Bring to boil... then let it simmer strongly for 30 minutes.
  6. Keep stirring.
  7. After 30 mins... take off gas and allow to thicken for 10 minutes.
  8. Bring to boil then serve.
Not salt requires to be added to the soup at preparation due to the stock and the garlic.

Enjoy... I did/do. Took 3 bowls at lunch time. Very low calorie and low GI too. Lovely!

If you do make it... please post or tweet a picture.

Picture posted with LifeCast... recipe added later.
