Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 medium yellow onion, diced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 medium carrot, diced
- 1 celery stalk, diced
- 28 ounces canned crushed tomatoes
- 3 cups vegetable broth (or chicken broth)
- 2 tablespoons fresh dill, chopped
- 1 teaspoon sugar (optional, to balance acidity)
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.25 cup heavy cream (optional, for garnish)
- 4 sprigs fresh dill sprigs (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.
Add the diced onion and sauté for 3-4 minutes until softened and translucent.
Stir in the minced garlic, diced carrot, and diced celery. Cook for an additional 4-5 minutes until the vegetables are slightly tender.
Pour in the crushed tomatoes and vegetable broth. Stir to combine.
Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and simmer for 20 minutes to allow the flavors to develop.
Stir in the chopped fresh dill, sugar (if using), salt, and black pepper. Adjust seasoning to taste.
Using an immersion blender, purée the soup until smooth. Alternatively, transfer the soup in batches to a countertop blender, blend, and return it to the pot.
If using, stir in the heavy cream to make the soup creamy and rich.
Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with a small dollop of cream and a sprig of fresh dill for presentation.
Serve hot with crusty bread or grilled cheese on the side.
