How To Make Vegan Tomato Potato Soup Recipe
Step1 Wash, Dry, and Chop
Wash the potato, tomato, and onion. Roughly chop them and put them in a pressure cooker.
Step 2 Pressure Cook
Pressure cook on high flame for two whistles and cook on slow flame for another ten minutes.
Let the cooker have a natural release of pressure. Use an immersion blender to blend the boiled tomato potato. Transfer the content to a large pot and cook on a slow flame for a couple of minutes. Spice with Italian seasoning, black pepper, and salt.
If you like chunky tomato potato soup, you might take out a few chunks of potato as garnishing later.
Step 3. Serve It
Serve the Tomato Potato Soup with rice or crusty bread for a quick meal.
Expert Tips
- The best flavor comes from fresh tomatoes. If you are using tomato paste or sauce, the soup won't have the same taste and flavor.
- Make sure to cook soup on a slow flame. To add thickness to the soup, I have used potatoes. So, it will be creamy but for a restaurant-style creamy texture, you might need to add cream, though it won't be low-calorie or healthy then.
Storage Suggestions
The leftovers of the soup can be cooled off and then put them in a sealed container in the fridge for up to 3 days. You may freeze it for about 1 week. Warm gently on the stove or in the microwave, adding a bit of water if needed when serving again.
Recipe FAQs
Tomato soup is healthy because it's rich in vitamins and antioxidants like vitamin C and it's low in calories, and can keep you hydrated. Plus, its fiber content promotes digestive health.
It depends on your taste preference and dietary needs. Milk can add creaminess and richness to tomato soup, making it smoother and slightly thicker. However, if you prefer a lighter, more tomato-forward taste or if you're lactose intolerant, water might be a better.
