SAVE THIS ONE for soup season! 🍅🥕🥣
There’s nothing quite like a big bowl of homemade soup as the colder days start creeping in, especially when it’s made using fresh, local ingredients from the farm shop. 🤎
Homemade Tomato & Vegetable Soup
You’ll need:
🥄 2 tbsp olive oil
🧅 2 onions, chopped
🥕 3 carrots, finely chopped
🧄 1 garlic clove, crushed
🍅 450g fresh ripe tomatoes, roughly chopped
🍯 1 tsp Loddington honey
🥣 1 litre vegetable stock
🌿 Handful of fresh basil, shredded (optional)
🧂 Salt & freshly ground black pepper
Method:
1. Heat the olive oil in a large saucepan. Add the onions, carrots and garlic, cover and gently cook for around 10 minutes until softened.
2. Add the fresh tomatoes and Loddington honey. Season with salt and pepper, stir well and cook for another 5 minutes.
3. Pour in the vegetable stock, bring to the boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 15–20 minutes.
4. Blend until beautifully smooth and creamy. Stir through fresh basil just before serving if you fancy it. 🌿
And that’s it! A proper comforting bowl of homemade goodness, packed with fresh, locally grown produce. 🍅🥕
