How to Make Cream Of Tomato Soup In Puff Pastry

  1. Start by prepping the vegetables: finely chop 1 large onion and 2 cloves garlic. Dice 2 lbs ripe tomatoes.
  2. In a large pot or Dutch oven, sauté the onion and garlic in 2 tbsp olive oil over medium heat until softened (about 5 minutes).
  3. Add the diced tomatoes, 1 tsp dried oregano, 1/2 tsp dried basil, salt and pepper to taste. Simmer for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the tomatoes have softened.
  4. Puree the tomato mixture using an immersion blender or carefully transfer to a regular blender until smooth. Return to the pot.
  5. Stir in 2 cups heavy cream, 1 cup chicken broth, and 1/4 cup tomato paste. If desired, add 2 tbsp sherry for extra flavor. Heat gently for another 5 minutes.
  6. Season with salt and pepper to your liking. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed.
  7. Allow the soup to cool completely in the refrigerator (this is crucial before baking).
  8. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  9. Roll out one sheet of puff pastry (14.1 oz) to a 12-inch circle. Carefully place it over the top of the soup in an oven-safe dish.
  10. Cut several small slits in the puff pastry to allow steam to escape.
  11. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the puff pastry is golden brown and puffed up.
  12. Let the soup rest for a few minutes before serving. Garnish with fresh basil or a swirl of cream if desired.
