Ingredients
Instructions
Heat the butter in a large, heavy bottomed saucepan or Dutch oven over a medium high heat. Add the onions with a large pinch of salt, and cook until soft and just starting to color: 3-4 minutes. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for a further minute, until fragrant.
Add the canned tomatoes, followed by the vegetable broth, using a little of the broth to wash out the cans of every last bit of tomato juice. Stir in the brown sugar, oregano and the whole basil sprigs and bring to the boil. Season well with salt and pepper before reducing the heat to low and leaving to simmer for 20 minutes.
Remove the soup from the heat, discarding the basil sprigs. Add the heavy cream and blitz using a stick blender until smooth. Add more salt and pepper to taste before serving with more basil and a swirl of cream in each bowl.
