Ingredients
- 1/4 lb butter
- 1 cup celery diced
- 1 cup onion diced
- 1/2 cup carrot diced
- 1/3 cup flour
- 28 oz diced tomatoes
- 2 tsp sugar
- 1 tsp dried basil
- 1 tsp dried marjoram
- 4 cups chicken broth or vegetable broth
- 1/2 tsp curry powder
- 2 cups half & half
Instructions
- In a large pot, melt butter over medium-low heat. Stir in celery, onion, and carrot and sauté until veggies are soft, 10-15 minutes.
- Sprinkle flour over vegetables and stir until well incorporated. Mix in the rest of the ingredients (tomatoes, sugar, basil, marjoram, and chicken broth), except the half & half and curry powder. Cover and simmer 30-45 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Puree soup with an immersion blender or a regular blender (but be really careful! It's HOT STUFF!) until smooth. Pour blended soup back into the soup pot.
- Stir in 2 cups half & half with 1/2 teaspoon curry powder. DO NOT boil once this has been added! Serve hot!

Notes
You could use whole milk, but after the 1/4 lb. of butter, why would you choose the 'lighter' option?!
