Just like Hienz but without the tin!!!!
1 KG Tomatoes (plum are best)
250 Grms Onions
250 Grms Carrots
250 Grms Potato
200 GRms Tomato puree
50 Grms Sugar
50 ml Vinegar
1 Lt water
Salt & Pepper to taste
Croutons
4 slices of toasted bread, cut into cubes, sprinkled with salt and dried out in a low heat in the oven, sprinkle with grated Parmesan or similar before service
Peel and chop the vegetables, wash the tomatoes and cut in half, put in a large saucepan with the water and bring to the boil, add all other ingredients except salt & pepper, simmer until carrots are cooked. Whiz through a blender, season to taste and serve with Croutons. For a smoother creamier soup, pass through a sieve and add 150 ml plain yogurt.
