- Ready In:
- 1hr
- Ingredients:
- 9
- Serves:
-
4-6
ingredients
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 large yellow onion, finely chopped (you can also use a white onion)
- 3 lbs tomatoes, coarsely chopped
- 2 teaspoons fresh thyme, chopped (or 1 teaspoon dried)
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1⁄4 teaspoon black pepper, freshly ground
- 1⁄2 cup chicken broth (or vegetable broth or water)
- 3⁄4 cup heavy cream
directions
- Heat the oil and butter in the pressure cooker over medium high heat until the butter melts. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until wilted, about 5 minutes.
- Add the tomatoes and their juices, thyme, salt, pepper, and broth and stir to mix.
- Lock on the lid and bring to pressure over high heat, about 4 minutes.
- Reduce heat to medium and cook for 15 minutes.
- Remove from the heat and let sit for 10 minutes to finish cooking (this step also lets the cooker cool down so that the later release of steam is minimal).
- With the steam vent pointed away from your face, gently release any remaining pressure. Let cool enough to remove lid.
- Use immersion blender to puree soup (or transfer soup to blender or food processor and puree in smaller batches to avoid buring yourself).
- If after blending you see any chunks of tomato peel, put soup through strainer or food mill to remove.
- If using right away, place soup in large pan and stir in cream. Reheat gently without boiling then add garnish of choice and serve.
- If not using right away, store in the refigerator until ready to use; then stir in the cream, heat and serve.
