Beany Tomato Soup

1 medium onion
Olive oil
Cornflour
1 vegetable stock cube
1 tin chopped tomatoes
1 tin of mixed beans in water
Concentrated tomato puree (optional)
Dried basil
Oregano to garnish (optional)
Method
Peel and chop your onion (tip: keeping onions in your fridge not only makes them last longer but vaporisation of the allicin oil is minimised... No tears when chopping!)
Cook onion until soft in a spoonful of olive oil (extra virgin adds flavour)
Dissolve the stock cube in 1/3 pint (a coffee mug) of boiling water. Add to the pan.
Add your tin of chopped tomatoes and the drained and rinsed tin of beans. Add 1/2 tsp dried basil.
Bring to boil, simmer for 5 minutes.Whizz until smooth, in a jug using a hand blender.
Return to pan and bring back to boiling point before adding a teaspoon of cornflour (cornstarch) which has been mixed until smooth in a about 1 tablespoon of water. This will bring the texture of the soup nicely together.
Serve garnished with a herb of your choice and some home made bread and butter. Enjoy!
