Hints & Tips

Below we added some of our communities most common hints and tips. We hope you find them useful.

A lovely tasting soup full of flavour
Instead of tin tomatoes I roasted fresh greenhouse tomatoes took skin’s off and continued with the recipe, delicious
A bit thick
I found that the water I added evaporated quickly with the lid on for the amount of time it needed to cook and ended up adding more water at the end to make it a bit thinner. Still packed full of flavour!
A delicious soup made using store cupboard items.
This soup was so tasty and easy to make. An ideal lunch which we all enjoyed. I added croutons and some grated cheddar to serve on the soup

How do you know when Speedy Tomato Soup is cooked?

The soup should be brought to the boil and then covered and left to simmer for 15-20 minutes until the veg is tender. It then needs to be blended until it is smooth.

Standard advice here in the UK is to cook food until it has reached 70°C and stayed at that temperature for 2 minutes. This is to keep your family safe.

How long can you keep Speedy Tomato Soup in the fridge?

Once you’ve put it out, ideally you should eat it within 4 hours.

If you allow any leftovers to cool, make sure to refrigerate in a container with a lid and chill. You can keep leftovers of Speedy Tomato Soup in the fridge for approximately 3 days or so.

Can I freeze Speedy Tomato Soup?

Yes you can! This recipe can be frozen, but please remember to do the following;

  • Freeze it as soon as it is cold enough.
  • Use a container that is suitable for freezing.

Don’t forget to add a label with what it is, and on what date you put it in the freezer!

How do I reheat Speedy Tomato Soup?

From chilled: Place in a microwave proof container with loosely fitting lid and heat for 4-7 minutes until piping hot.

From frozen: Allow to defrost, and heat covered in the microwave for 3-5 minutes then stir. Cook for a further 5-7 minutes until piping hot.

How can I work out the calories of this recipe if I left out the potatoes?! Thanks

    SharonMonday 23rd October 2023

    Hi Clare, we wouldn’t recommend leaving the potatoes out as they thicken the Speedy Tomato Soup. If you do want to adjust ingredients and calories you may find this article useful : How to work out calories and points in a recipe. Hope this helps.

Hi – can I chuck all these ingredients into my soupmaker and press the smooth button or does it really need to go on the hob? Thanks

How many g or ml per serving it is for 90 cals? Please

Reply

    HollyTuesday 16th November 2021

    Hey Emily, We work out our recipes on the serving size not by weight. To work out your own weight of a serving you would need to make the finished dish and divide servings, as the weight will vary due to variation of ingredients and water content it’s not something we can do as an exact measure. If you scroll down to the recipe card at the bottom of the page on the website there is a little arrow by servings and you can alter up or down to serve more or less people. Hope that helps!

I have loads of fresh Tom’s would it be 400gms of those instead of tinned x

Reply

    SharonFriday 17th December 2021

    Hi Sue, tinned tomatoes usually have a more intense flavour than fresh tomatoes so they work well in soup. We haven’t tried making this soup with fresh tomatoes, but if you’d like to try it, we would suggest a 400g tin is equivalent to about 5 or 6 medium tomatoes. These will weigh over 400g but you will need to skin and deseed them first. You could try adding a little tomato puree to make the tomato flavour more intense. Hope this helps!

Hi, thanks for the recipe! Can I ask why it is 2points on WW purple? I can only see 2points in total for the stock cubes? Is this 2points per total 6servings?
Thanks!

Would passata be alright to use instead of tinned tomatoes and what quantity as I cannot eat seeds, many thanks

Reply

    Sharon FitzpatrickFriday 8th May 2020

    Hi Ann , yes, you could use passata instead if you prefer. The tin of tomatoes in this recipe would be 400g. Passata often comes in a 500g carton, so you could add that and it should be fine. Let us know how you get on. Thanks for getting in touch.

I made this and used sweet potato instead and added a pinch if chilli flakes, it gave it a nice sweetness with a hint of heat. Even my husband was impressed.
