Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons of fragrant coconut oil were measured out for the recipe. Next, a finely chopped yellow onion was added to the mix. The list continued with 3 tablespoons of flavorful tomato paste and 2 cloves of garlic, crushed. Additionally, 1 tablespoon of gluten-free all-purpose baking flour was included.
- To enhance the dish, 3 cups of vegetable broth were poured in, along with a can of crushed tomatoes weighing 15 ounces. The chef then sprinkled in 2 tablespoons of freshly chopped basil for a burst of freshness. A tablespoon each of zesty fresh lemon juice and rich pure maple syrup were added to balance the flavors.
- A single bay leaf was added to infuse a subtle aroma into the dish. To bring creaminess, a can of coconut milk measuring 13.5 ounces was incorporated. The seasoning was completed with a touch of sea salt to taste. Finally, fresh basil leaves were kept aside for garnishing the dish beautifully.
Step 1
Begin by gently heating coconut oil in a pot on medium-high heat until it shimmers invitingly. As the oil warms, sauté the onion until it becomes soft and translucent, which usually takes about 5 minutes. Next, introduce the tomato paste and garlic to the mix, allowing the fragrant garlic to infuse the air for an additional 2 minutes.
Step 2
With a sprinkle of flour, bring a velvety texture to the onion medley, stirring until well combined. Then, pour in the vegetable broth, crushed tomatoes, chopped basil, a splash of lemon juice, a hint of maple syrup, and the noble bay leaf. Let this flavorful concoction reach a bubbling boil before reducing the heat to a gentle simmer. Allow it to simmer until the tomatoes surrender completely, usually around 20 minutes.
Step 3
Now, turn off the heat beneath the pot and bid farewell to the bay leaf as you remove and discard it. Gently transfer the aromatic soup to a blender, ensuring the lid is secure before pulsing it a few times to get things moving. Once the mixture is smooth and pureed, return it to the pot over medium-low heat.
Step 4
Blend in the creamy coconut milk until the soup boasts a consistent hue, warming it through gently. Finally, season the soup with a sprinkle of sea salt and crown it with the freshness of vibrant basil sprigs as a garnish.
Extra Tips & Suggestions
- 1. Keep your canned tomatoes organized in a neat row on a pantry shelf for easy access when whipping up a batch of tomato basil soup.
- 2. Store your fresh basil in a glass of water on the kitchen windowsill to keep it fresh and vibrant until you're ready to use it in your soup.
