Ingredients you'll need
  • 500g vine tomatoes
  • 1 onion
  • 1 carrot
  • 1 celery stick
  • 1 vegetable stock cube
  • 1cm slice of ginger
  • 1 tbsp + 2 tsp tamari
From your kitchen
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • Sea salt
  • Freshly ground pepper
  • 700ml boiling water
Step by step this way
  • 1.

    Heat your oven to 200°C/180°C/Gas 6. Chop the tomatoes into 6–8 wedges each. Arrange the tomatoes on a baking tray. Roast for 30 mins till the tomatoes are soft and charred.

  • 2.

    While the tomatoes roast, halve the onion. Peel and dice it. Peel the carrot and finely dice it. Trim and finely dice the celery.

  • 3.

    Set a pan over a medium heat. Add ½ tbsp oil. Stir in the veg and season with salt and pepper. Gently fry for 5–8 mins till the veg have started to soften.

  • 4.

    Crumble in the stock cube and pour in 700ml boiling water. Pop on a lid. Simmer for 15 mins.

  • 5.

    Tip the tomatoes and any juice from the tray into a blender. Add a peeled 1cm-thick slice of the ginger and the veg and stock from the pan with 1 tbsp of the tamari. Whizz till smooth (or you can tip the tomatoes into the pan and use a hand-held blender to blitz the soup).

  • 6.

    Ladle the soup into warm bowls and drizzle with 1 tsp tamari each before serving.
