Tomato Soup
What you need
- 1 tin of tomatoes
- 1 onion
- butter
- a splash of cream
Salt, pepper, water and oil don’t count. Mom always had those.
What you do
Soften the chopped onion in butter, add the tomatoes and a mug of water, simmer fifteen minutes. Blend or mash, stir the cream in off the heat.
How it feels to make
The colour changes twice — bright red, then dark, then pale pink when the cream goes in.
Mom wrote on the back
Cream at the end, heat off. Boil it and it splits on you.
