Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 medium sweet onion peeled, roughly chopped
- 1 medium carrot peeled, grated
- 2 cloves garlic chopped
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper freshly ground
- 1 teaspoon Mediterranean herbs such as oregano, thyme, basil, dried
- 1 teaspoon paprika sweet
- 3 Tablespoons tomato paste
- 1 oz can crushed tomatoes
- 3 1/2 cups vegetable stock (broth)
- 1 cup rice optional, cooked
- 1 Tablespoon pure maple syrup
- 1/2 cup coconut cream
- 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar or balsamic
- 1 teaspoon salt or to taste, divided, fine sea salt
Instructions
- Warm the olive oil in a large, heavy bottomed pot set over medium heat. Add the onion and carrots, and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 6-7 minutes.
- Add the garlic, pepper, dried herbs and paprika to the pot. Sprinkle everything with 1/2 teaspoon of salt and cook for an additional minute.
- With a wooden spoon, push the veggies to the side and add the tomato paste to the bottom of the pot. Let it cook for a minute or two, then stir to incorporate the vegetables.
- Pour in the crushed tomatoes and vegetable stock. Stir and partially cover the pot with a lid. Simmer for about 30 minutes. Add the rice (this helps thicken the soup and makes it a little more filling) and the maple syrup. Cook for 10 more minutes.
- Remove the soup from the heat and cool slightly. Purée until smooth with an immersion blender, OR transfer to a high speed blender and puree until smooth.
- To finish the soup, stir in the coconut cream, apple cider vinegar and 1/2 teaspoon of sea salt. Stir and taste. Adjust seasonings to taste, adding more cream or more salt, depending on your preference.
- Serve hot with crusty bread, croutons or crackers.
Notes
- The ingredient list may be lengthy, but this soup is not complicated to prepare. Each ingredient plays an important roll in a flavourful, well-balanced and nourishing tomato soup with a great texture.
