Notes

  • Roasting the tomatoes will give you that unique rich flavour that we love. You can add all the ingredients in the pan and just boil them, but that would be just some okayish soup, not an amazing one.
  • You can also roast the onion at the same time, but l prefer to light fry it to get that lovely caramelised taste.
