Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 medium, chopped yellow onion
- 3 minced garlic cloves
- 6 large, chopped ripe tomatoes
- 3 cups vegetable broth
- 1 bay leaf
- 10 fresh basil leaves
- 1 cup coconut milk
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
Instructions
Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.
Add the chopped onion and cook until soft, about 5 minutes.
Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the chopped tomatoes, vegetable broth, and bay leaf to the pot.
Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for about 20 minutes until the tomatoes are broken down and very soft.
Remove the bay leaf from the pot.
Stir in the fresh basil leaves, coconut milk, salt, black pepper, and sugar.
Use an immersion blender to puree the soup until smooth. Alternatively, transfer the soup in batches to a blender and blend until smooth, then return to the pot.
Stir in the lemon juice and adjust seasoning to taste, adding more salt, pepper, or sugar as needed.
Serve hot, garnished with additional basil leaves or a drizzle of coconut milk, if desired.
