Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 medium, chopped yellow onion
- 3 minced garlic cloves
- 2 medium, chopped carrots
- 2 chopped celery stalks
- 28 ounces canned crushed tomatoes
- 4 cups vegetable broth
- 1 teaspoon dried basil
- 1 bay leaf
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 cup coconut milk
- 0.25 cup, chopped (optional for garnish) fresh basil
Instructions
Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté for about 5 minutes until translucent.
Add the minced garlic, chopped carrots, and chopped celery to the pot. Cook for another 5 minutes until the vegetables begin to soften.
Stir in the canned crushed tomatoes and vegetable broth. Add the dried basil, bay leaf, salt, and black pepper.
Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover and let it simmer for 30 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
Remove the bay leaf, and use an immersion blender to puree the soup until smooth. Alternatively, you can carefully transfer the mixture to a blender in batches and blend until smooth.
Return the pureed soup to the pot over low heat. Stir in the coconut milk and allow the soup to heat through, about 5 minutes.
Taste and adjust the seasonings if needed. Serve hot, garnished with fresh chopped basil if desired.
