Tomato and Coconut Soup

This is a beautiful soup. I made it for me, the kids had a taste and thought it was okay, but am not sure they would eat a whole bowl of it. This recipe is smaller in quantity that my usual ones too. It would serve either two big bowls of soup or four entree sized servings.

Tomato and Coconut Soup

Ingredients:

  • 600 grams tomatoes
  • Olive oil spray
  • 1 lime
  • 200mls coconut milk
  • 1/2 tsp curry powder
  • 200mls water
  • salt and pepper to taste

Method:
1. Preheat oven to 180°C. Slice tomatoes into four wedges each. Place onto trays lined with baking paper.

2. Spray the tomatoes with a little olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper.

3. Bake in the oven for about 30 minutes.

4. While tomatoes are cooking, juice the lime and set aside.

5. I made this soup in the Soup and Co. If you are too, simply add tomatoes, lime, coconut milk, water and curry powder to the Soup and Co. Select programme 1 and cook for 25 minutes. Serve and enjoy.

Alternatively add add tomatoes, lime, coconut milk, water and curry powder to a medium pot. Bring to the boil, then reduce heat to a simmer for 15 minutes. Place batches of soup into a jug and puree the contents. Pour pureed mixture into a large bowl and begin pureeing another batch. Continue this process until all the mixture has been pureed and you are happy with the consistency of the soup.
