Calories: 87kcal
Ingredients
- 1 onion chopped
- 2 garlic cloves chopped
- 1 stick celery chopped
- 300 g carrots chopped
- 800 g chopped tomatoes* (2 x 400g tins)
- 1 tbsp tomato purée
- 600 ml vegetable stock** approx
- 1 tsp dried basil or oregano
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Optionally sauté the onion, celery, and garlic if your model allows. Cook for 2–3 minutes until softened.
- Add the carrots, chopped tomatoes, tomato purée, herbs, and vegetable stock up to the MAX line.
- Select the smooth soup setting.
- When finished, taste and adjust seasoning. If the soup is too thick add some hot water and stir it in/blend it, to your preferred consistency.
Notes
*I used two x 400g tins of chopped tomatoes with 300g carrots. I did decide to add some extra hot water at the end of the smooth soup cycle as it was a little thick. If you prefer you can use just 1 x 400g tins of chopped tomatoes and up the carrots to 400g.
** I tend to add the stock powder or cube directly to the soup maker jug and then pour hot water in until I reach the MAX line. I give the contents a little stir too at this point. The amount of stock you can fit in may vary.
