INGREDI ENTS
SCALE 1x 2x 3x
3 medium potatoes, peeled and chopped into small pieces
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 cup onion, chopped
1 tablespoon garlic, minced
3 cups tomatoes, canned or fresh, finely diced
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
1 teaspoon salt (or more to taste)
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper (or to taste)
2 teaspoons feta cheese (for garnish)
1 teaspoon fresh basil leaves (for garnish)
INSTRUCTIONS
1. Cook the potatoes: Add chopped potatoes in a medium pot filled with salted water.
Make sure all the potatoes are completely under water to achieve even cooking.
Bring it to a boil and cook for about 10 minutes until the potatoes are fork tender. If
you can easily insert a fork inside, then it is fork tender and ready.
2. Cook the tomatoes: Meanwhile, heat oil in another medium pot or Dutch oven over
medium-high heat for 2 minutes until the hot oil sizzles and shimmers. Add onion
and sauté for 3-4 minutes until soft and tender. Add garlic and sauté for another 2
minutes. Add diced tomatoes and stir to cook for 5-7 minutes until tomatoes are
soft and saucy. Stir in all the seasoning including Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper.
3. Combine the ingredients: Transfer the cooked potatoes together with 3-4 cups of
boiling potato water (depends on how thick you prefer the soup to be) into the
tomato mixture. Stir well to combine and bring the soup to a simmer.
4. Blend the soup: Blend the soup into a puree using an immersion blender or transfer
the soup into a regular blender to puree. If using a regular blender, you will have to
puree in batches.
5. Serve: Serve immediately in a bowl and garnish with fresh basil, extra olive oil and
feta cheese on top.
