Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 large, diced yellow onion
• 3 cloves, minced garlic
• 28 ounces canned crushed tomatoes
• 3 cups vegetable broth
• 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
• 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
• 2 tablespoons, chopped fresh dill
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
• 0.25 cups heavy cream (optional)
• 2 teaspoons, chopped fresh dill (for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.

Step 2

Add the diced onion and cook for 5-7 minutes until soft and translucent, stirring occasionally to prevent browning.

Step 3

Add the minced garlic and sauté for another 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

Step 4

Pour in the crushed tomatoes and vegetable broth. Stir to combine.

Step 5

Add the sugar, red wine vinegar, dill, salt, and black pepper to the pot. Stir well.

Step 6

Bring the soup to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat to low and let it simmer uncovered for 20 minutes to develop the flavors.

Step 7

Using an immersion blender, carefully blend the soup until smooth (or leave it slightly chunky, if preferred). Alternatively, let the soup cool slightly and blend in batches with a stand blender, then return it to the pot.

Step 8

If using, stir in the heavy cream for a richer texture, and heat the soup gently for another 2-3 minutes. Adjust seasoning to taste with additional salt or pepper if needed.

Step 9

Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with freshly chopped dill before serving. Enjoy!
