Tomato And Leek Soup Wednesday, November 28, 2007 ![]() We enjoyed Mother-in-law's Tomato and Leek Soup so much the last time round, I had to make some of our own. Before leaving, I asked her for the list of ingredients and committed them to memory. This is my attempt, albeit with one minor change. Mother-in-law loves cream in her soup so she puts in a generous dollop before serving. Well, (unnecessary) cream is to me what garlic is like to Dracula so if I can skip it without sacrificing taste, I will. And that's what I did here. Tomato And Leek Soup You need: ![]() 1 tbsp butter 1 stalk leek, halved lengthwise and finely sliced 1 packet of cut tomatoes in sauce (I used Heinz) 3-4 cups of fish boullion Salt and pepper to taste small strips of raw or smoked salmon How To:
Note: This is a tangy soup. For extra kick, I added a good pinch of ground chilli powder which got us all snivelly nosed during dinner. Perfect for the current rainy, cold nights. The Dutchess of Cookalot whipped this up at 3:53 am 2 calories ![]()

Wow, lovely for a rainy day like today. It's been thunderous and rain non-stop. Dose Sonny boy take chillil too?
At least it's warm rain in Singapore. Here, when it rains ice water. Really unpleasant. No thunder but it can get pretty windy which goes through your 3 layers of clothing, bones and out through the other side.

Sonny-boy doesn't like spicy food. Even excessive pepper is too much for him. Bah! |
