Herbed Tomato Soup With Pasta Recipes

TOMATO SOUP WITH PASTA

Steps:

• Warm the olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Once the oil shimmers, add the diced onion and cook, stirring often, until the onion is turning translucent (5 minutes).
• Add the garlic, the turmeric and the basil, and stir to enhance all the flavors for about 1 minute (if you use fresh basil, keep it aside and add it at the end).
• Add the tomato sauce, broth, tomato paste, salt and pepper (¾ tsp of fine salt is fine is you use low sodium vegetable broth, but if you use regular or chicken broth it's better to adjust the seasoning at the end).
• Stir in the pasta and bring to the boil, then reduce the heat to maintain a simmer and cook the pasta keeping the lid half way. Stir often.
• The soup will nicely thicken while the pasta is cooking, but trust your judgement and add extra broth if needed of if you prefer a thinner consistency when the pasta is done. Turn the heat off, taste and adjust the seasoning to your liking if needed, and stir in the thorn basil leaves if you use fresh basil.
• Divide into 4 bowls and serve with a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil, black pepper and grated/shaved parmesan cheese if you wish.
