About this recipe
Creamy Tomato Soup Thermomix TM7 style brings a beloved classic straight from your all-in-one kitchen machine to the table. Ripe tomatoes are combined with tomato paste, garlic, onions and a splash of cream, then blended at high speed until every spoonful is silky and velvety. Searching for easy Thermomix TM7 soup recipes pays off here: the machine chops the onions, sautés them in butter, simmers the tomatoes and purées everything in the same bowl, so no blender or extra pans are needed. A pinch of sugar balances the acidity of the tomatoes, while dried oregano adds a gentle Mediterranean note. This soup works beautifully as a quick weeknight dinner starter, a warming weekend lunch or even as part of a festive menu. Garnish with fresh basil or a swirl of cream and serve with crusty bread for a comforting meal everyone will love.
Preparation tips
- Use very ripe tomatoes or a mix of fresh and tinned tomatoes for a deeper, sweeter flavour in your soup; the tomato paste reinforces the colour and adds savoury depth to every spoonful.
- After blending, let the soup rest briefly with the lid on so the flavours of the oregano, garlic and cream meld together; taste before serving and adjust salt or sugar to your preference.
- For a kid-friendly version, reduce the garlic slightly and serve with fun toppings such as mini croutons or grated cheese; leftover soup keeps well in the fridge and can be frozen in portions.
Recipe variations
- Lactose-free variation: replace the cream with oat or soy cooking cream and use plant-based butter instead of unsalted butter; the soup stays silky and the tomato flavour remains the star.
- Festive variation: add a splash of white wine while sautéing the onions and finish with roasted cherry tomatoes and fresh basil; perfect as an elegant starter for a dinner party.
