Ingredients
5 medium Tomato (chopped)
5 cloves of burnt garlic
1 medium Onion (chopped)
2 tbsp of cooking oil
4 glass Water
1 tbsp Salt
1 tbsp Cumin Powder
1 tbsp Black Pepper Powder
1 tbsp Clarified Butter (Ghee)
Fried onions for garnish
Instructions
1
Finely chop 5 to 6 fresh tomatoes, 1 onion, and a generous portion of garlic cloves. Ensure the garlic is chopped thinly for the garnish.
2
Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a pan. Add 5 to 6 garlic cloves and the chopped onion. Sauté until the onions turn translucent and aromatic.
3
Add the chopped tomatoes to the pan and sauté for approximately two minutes. Pour in 3 to 4 glasses of water, cover with a lid, and cook for about 10 minutes until the tomatoes are soft and well-cooked.
4
Once cooked, transfer the mixture to a blender or jar and crush it well. Use a sieve to drain the liquid into clean container, ensuring a smooth consistency.
5
Return the strained soup base to the pan on the stove. Add half a tablespoon each of salt, cumin powder (jeera), and pepper powder. Adjust the salt according to your preference and mix thoroughly.
6
In a separate small pan or kadai, heat 1 tablespoon of ghee. Add the thinly chopped garlic and fry until it reaches a crispy, golden-brown state.
7
Pour the hot soup into bowls. Top with the crispy burnt garlic and, if desired, some fried onions for extra texture. Serve immediately while hot.
