Roasted Tomato Soup|Cream of Tomato Soup

Tomato soup has always been my favourite. Its loved by all in family too. Infact, the only soup I could make when I was new to the culinary world was Tomato Soup. No wonder that it tastes good be it with cream or without. When my daughter was young, she was a tough eater and I had to try different recipes to make her eat. One time we all were having dinner in a restaurant on occasion of my sister-in-law's Birthday. We ordered Cream of Tomato Soup. I was sure that she will not like it so I planned to share with her. We all were surprised when she not just liked it but it became her breakfast meal for a month or so. I knew that I would make one thing for sure and it was tomato soup. Since then, in my kitchen several experiments on varied versions of tomato soups were tried. This one is similar to what we generally get in restaurants. Talking about the benefits of tomatoes, these are rich in potassium and vit A, B, definitely good for people with high BP and cholesterol levels and its best to consume tomatoes in cooked form. This tomato soup is rich in fresh cream used from cow's milk. So I prefer having this high- calorie soup in morning. I have boiled tomatoes and then roasted the tomato gravy in ghee and the roasting step added a nice tangy flavour to it.

Hope you enjoy it!!.
