Thai Spicy Tomato Soup Recipes

THAI TOMATO SOUP

Steps:

• Heat coconut oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat, until melted.
• Cook onion, stirring often, until softened and golden brown, 8-10 minutes.
• Add garlic, ginger, red curry paste, and red pepper flakes and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 2 minutes.
• Add tomatoes, ½ cup cilantro, and vegetable broth.
• Reserve 1/4 cup of coconut milk, then add the rest of the coconut milk to the pot.
• Bring to a boil then reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes.
• Using an immersion blender, blend the soup until smooth. Alternatively, let the soup cool slightly and carefully transfer to a blender. Blend until smooth, allowing heat to escape through the vent at the top of the blender.
• Divide into bowls and top with leftover cilantro, coconut milk, and red pepper flakes.

THAI-SPICED TOMATO SOUP

Steps:

• 1. Heat the oil in a saucepan over a medium-high heat. Add the onion, carrots and red pepper and fry for 3 minutes. Add the ginger and Thai curry paste and fry for 30 seconds. 2. Add all the remaining ingredients except the Thai basil. Bring up to the boil, cover with a lid and simmer for 20 minutes until the vegetables are soft. Remove the lemongrass stalk, add the Thai basil then place the soup in a blender or food processor and purée until smooth. 3. Return the soup to the pan, add about 200ml (7fl oz) of water to thin the soup down, and reheat to serve. Decorate each bowl of soup with fresh Thai basil leaves.

SPICY TOMATO SOUP

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium heat; stir in onions and bay leaves, and cook about 5 minutes until the onions begin to soften. Add flour, ginger-garlic paste, garam masala, turmeric, and Indian chili powder. Cook and stir until fragrant, about 1 minute.
• Pour the water into the pan, and bring to a boil while scraping the browned bits of food off of the bottom with a wooden spoon. Pour in the tomato puree and thin with additional water to desired consistency. Add sugar and salt; cook until sugar is dissolved and soup is hot, about 5 minutes.
• Remove bay leaves and serve with cream if desired.

THAI SPICY TOMATO SOUP

SPICY TOMATO SOUP

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat until shimmering. Add the onions and red pepper flakes and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are translucent and very tender, about 10 minutes.
• Stir in the tomatoes and their juices, plus the water, and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the flavors have melded, about 30 minutes. (If you're in a hurry, you can skip the simmer time -- just add a bit less water.)
• Add the basil, season with salt and pepper, remove from the heat, and let cool briefly, about 5 minutes.
• Set a fine-mesh strainer over a large, heatproof bowl.
• Using a blender, purée the soup in batches until smooth, removing the small cap from the blender lid (the pour lid) and covering the space with a kitchen towel (this allows steam from the hot soup to escape and prevents the blender lid from popping off).
• Pour the blended soup through the strainer, pressing on the solids with a rubber spatula or ladle; discard the solids. Taste the soup and season with additional salt and pepper as needed.
• Return the soup to the saucepan and reheat on medium low until hot.
• If you choose, serve topped with a tablespoon of crème fraîche.
