Spicy Fresh Tomato Soup Recipes

Steps:

• Warm the olive oil in a large soup pot over medium-high heat. Add the carrots, onion, and garlic and saute until soft, about 2 minutes. Add the jar of marinara sauce, chicken broth, cannellini beans, red pepper flakes, pasta, salt and pepper. Simmer for 10 minutes. Ladle into bowls and serve.

Steps:

• Drain 1 can tomatoes, discarding juice, then purée with remaining can tomatoes (including juice) in a blender.
• Cook onion, garlic, chile, and ginger in oil in a 4- to 5-quart heavy nonreactive pot over moderate heat, stirring frequently, until onion is softened, about 8 minutes. Add cumin and cook, stirring, 1 minute. Stir in puréed tomatoes, broth, 1 tablespoon sugar, and 2 teaspoons salt and simmer, uncovered, stirring occasionally, 20 minutes. Working in 3 or 4 batches, blend soup in blender until smooth (use caution when blending hot liquids). Transfer soup as blended to a sieve set over a large bowl and force through sieve, discarding seeds.
• Stir in sugar and salt to taste. Reheat in cleaned saucepan if necessary.

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium heat; stir in onions and bay leaves, and cook about 5 minutes until the onions begin to soften. Add flour, ginger-garlic paste, garam masala, turmeric, and Indian chili powder. Cook and stir until fragrant, about 1 minute.
• Pour the water into the pan, and bring to a boil while scraping the browned bits of food off of the bottom with a wooden spoon. Pour in the tomato puree and thin with additional water to desired consistency. Add sugar and salt; cook until sugar is dissolved and soup is hot, about 5 minutes.
• Remove bay leaves and serve with cream if desired.

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large stockpot over medium heat. Add onion and cook until soft, about 5 minutes. Add garlic; cook and stir until fragrant but not brown, about 2 minutes. Add tomatoes, wine, water, basil, tomato paste, sugar, pepper flakes, oregano, salt, and pepper. Cover, bring to a simmer, and cook, stirring occasionally, for 45 minutes.
• Remove from the heat and puree soup with an immersion blender until smooth, or blend in batches in a blender. Return to the heat, stir in Parmesan cheese, and cook until heated through, about 3 minutes more. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in a large saucepan or Dutch oven. Lightly brown the onions in the oil. Add the tomatoes, chili pepper, lentils, cumin and basil to the pan along with the water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for about 20 minutes, or until the lentils are tender.
• When the lentils have softened, use a stick blender to puree the soup. Season to taste with salt and pepper. For a special touch, put sour cream in a squirt bottle, and squeeze a spiral onto the top of each bowl of soup, and garnish with a sprig of fresh basil.
