Spiced Indian Tomato Soup
We've just enjoyed a lovely relaxing weekend down the coast in Perranporth staying in a rather luxurious caravan! Perranporth has a beautifully stunning beach which I can't believe I have haven't visited before considering I have lived in Cornwall all of my life. The kids (and hubby and I) had so much fun swimming, walking and playing on the almost deserted beach. It was also nice to be away from computers/laptops and phones....something I need to do more often!
I whipped up a batch of this spicy, warming indian inspired soup to keep us all toasty during the chilly, breezy evenings....and it did the trick! I served it with some fresh salsa!
TOP TIPS FOR MAKING THE SPICED INDIAN TOMATO SOUP
- The soup freezes really well so why not make double and freeze half.
- Serve with a dollop of cooling yogurt.
- If you like it really hot, add an extra chilli.
