Easy Tomato Soup

We all like to drink soups not only because they are healthy and but also many a times the climate demands for a soup. A Hot soup on a snowy or a rainy day tastes like heaven. My five year old son comes running to me on such days and asks me to make soups. Mostly I make them this Easy Tomato Soup. It gets ready in a jiffy and is very easy.

Tomato Soup

Easy Tomato Soup

Tomato Puree - 1 cup
Salt
Freshly crushed Pepper - 1 t.sp
Sugar - 1 t.sp
Cornflour - 2 tb.sp

Water - 2 cups

Method
  1. Mix together the water and the tomato puree with a ladle. 
  2. Add sugar and heat it. 
  3. Let the mixture boil for about five to seven minutes so that raw smell of the tomato goes away.
  4. Add salt. Dissolve the cornflour in 1/4 glass of water and add to the soup.
  5. Let it boil it the soup thickens. Add fresh cream if you are using it.
  6. Remove from fire and strew the crushed pepper.
  7. Serve hot.
 Easy, isn't it. In this recipe nothing is hard and fast rule. Just change anything according to your choice and availability.
