Tomato Apple Soup Recipe | Learn how to make Tomato Soup with goodness of Apples

Tomato Apple Soup

Restaurant Style Tomato Soup recipe. No Cream, No Cornflour/Cornstarch and No Nuts Warm and Comforting Tomato Apple Soup loaded with good health and taste!!

Yes, a tomato soup with the goodness of fresh apples. Soups are the comfort food for winters or for the chilly rainy evenings. A HOT BOWL OF SOUP SOOTHES your senses and give comfort to body.

Tomato Soup is a hot favorite among all the age groups.  So here I bring you the recipe of thick and creamy Tomato Soup without any nuts.

Try this VEGAN, GLUTEN-FREE, NUTS FREE, KID'S FRIENDLY soup which is next going to be a hot favorite in your family. 

Hot Tomato soup is a great accompaniment with pasta ( Penne Pasta in Creamy Marinara Sauce, One Pot Creamy Spinach Pasta, Baked Pasta in  Creamy White Sauce), macaroni (Indian Masala Macaroni) , pizza or before meals with some crusty bread croutons. My kids love this a bit sweet, a bit tangy Tomato Soup with my homemade Whole Wheat Pizza or Basil flavored homemade bread( Star Bread, Basil Pesto Bread) or cheesy grilled sandwich.

The star ingredient of this Tomato Soup is of course, red ripe Tomatoes. But, apples here add a lot of texture and taste. The soup is thick creamy with a hint of sweet and a tangy taste.

What Kind of Tomatoes and Apple to choose for the Tomato Soup

For classic Tomato Soup always choose good bright red and ripe tomatoes.

In India I use a mix of hybrid and country(desi) tomatoes. For those outside India, Roma Tomatoes or Heirloom Tomatoes are the best as per my choice.

I usually add whatever apple is available at home. This time I added Green Apples. Tough Green Apples sometimes add a tart and tangy taste to soup, but you can always balance it a with a tsp of sugar/jaggery powder or any other raw sugar. If you find Granny Smith Apples too tart then you can use any other apple of your liking.

Do checkout another interesting Soup/Rasam Recipe with tomato and apple from the blog-- Apple Rasam, a South Indian spicy soup recipe.

Ingredients for Tomato Apple Soup

Tomatoes- Red, ripe and juicy tomatoes. I prefer using fresh tomatoes but you can always used canned ones.

Apples- Any juicy season fresh apples of your choice. Apples add so much of texture and richness to this delicious soup. There is no need to add cornstarch(Cornflour in India) or any kind of nuts to thicken it.

For the family of sour I use 4 tomatoes and 1 Apple. When making a large batch adjust the quantity of apples and tomatoes as per your choice.

Herbs- Fresh Basil, Ginger, Garlic, add on to the flavor and immune boasting properties. Substitute fresh basil and garlic for dry basil and garlic powder.

Whole Spices- Bay Leaf, Cloves, Black Peppercorns, and Cinnamon Stick.

Others- Salt, Sugar and Oil/Butter.

Tagging  this comforting Tomato and Apple Soup to my Facebook Shh Cooking Secretly Challenge for this month's theme. The theme was suggested by Priya Iyer, who blogs at The World Through My Eyes. Priya made Dal Ka Shorba for the theme.

For the Challenge we are paired with different co-bloggers every month. Partners give each other two secret ingredients and we cook the dishes of our choice using those two ingredients. This month my partner is Aruna Saraschandra who blogs at Vasu's Veg Kitchen. She made this delicious Sweetcorn Veggie Soup for the two ingredients that I gave her. Visit her blog for lots of delicious south Indian recipes. I love her and have bookmarked her recipe to try out.

    Wow, interesting idea to make a soup with apple. I make tomato soup so often but never thought of adding apple to it. It will add natural thickness as well as would be so delicious. And yes also a good way of using apples, if no one is eating.

    The soup looks absolutely delicious! The addition of the apple here is quite interesting. Love the deep red colour of the soup and the fact that it has turned out so thick and beautiful in spite of not using any thickener. Lovely recipe!
