Tomato And Basil Bisque
From Teebonemendez 13 years agoIngredients
- 1 x 28 ounce can chopped tomatoes (preferably peeled) shopping list
- 1/2 a teaspoon of dried oregano (rub between your palms to activate the flavor) shopping list
- 1 cup of chopped basil shopping list
- 1/2 an onion, chopped shopping list
- sugar, salt and pepper to taste shopping list
- 1/2 cup cream (full fat or light) shopping list
- 2 fresh tomatoes, seeds removed and cut into strips shopping list
How to make it
- In a large saucepan, add can of tomatoes (and the water), onion, pepper (about half a teaspoon), oregano and the equivalent of about 8 leaves of basil and bring to the boil
- Reduce to a medium-high heat and cook for about 25 minutes. Stir continuously to avoid burning the ingredients to the bottom of the saucepan
- Remove from the heat and either puree in a blender or mash with a potato masher until the consistency is fairly consistent (I prefer to use the potato masher - it takes more time but I like the remnants of onions and tomatoes for aesthetics)
- Stir in sugar (maybe a teaspoon), salt and more pepper to taste
- Before serving, add cream, remaining basil, and tomato strips (I leave a small amount of cream and basil to top for garnish)
- Ladle into bowls.
