5 Minute Vegan Tomato Soup – spicy & creamy!
Description
The 5 Minute Vegan Tomato Soup uses canned chopped tomatoes combined with finely diced red onion, tikka masala spice paste, and reconstituted coconut milk powder to create a rich, creamy base. Vegetable stock and garlic granules add complexity, while ground black pepper and salt balance the flavors. The short cooking time heats the ingredients to meld flavors but preserves freshness.
After cooking, the mixture is blended smooth with an immersion blender to achieve a creamy, consistent texture without dairy. The spice paste provides warmth and subtle heat typical of Indian cuisine, complemented by the coconut milk’s subtle creaminess. The finely diced onion softens during cooking but gives the soup body.
This soup is served warm and can be garnished with freshly ground garlic and chili, enhancing its spiciness and aroma. It pairs well with crusty bread for dipping, making it a filling and flavorful starter or light meal.
Notes suggest that a power blender can prepare the soup entirely, with an efficient blending and heating cycle, simplifying the process further without the need to finely dice the onion.
