This tomato soup is healthy and easy to prepare.I like to keep it simple so din't add cream,milk or corn flour.

Ingredients:

Pearl onion	2
Garlic	1 clove
Pepper	4
Clove	1

Method:

• Blanch tomatoes in water till its cooked well or pressure cook tomatoes.Allow to cool and remove the skin.
• Take a saucepan,add butter and the spices and fry for a minute.Now add garlic and small onion and fry till its translucent.
• Discard the cinnamon stick and clove,grind the fried onion,garlic,pepper along with the blanched tomatoes.
• Now add this tomato puree to the saucepan and add around 2 cups of water,salt and let it simmer for 5 mins.

Note:
