This amazingly simple Three Ingredient Tomato Soup will blow you away with flavour! Three main ingredients - tomatoes, celery and garlic, seasoned with salt and drizzled in olive oil - roasted in the oven for maximum taste.
This is the story of a girl, who instead of spending all of her disposable income on make up and fashion, spends it on food. And when I find myself spending £6.50 ($8.75) on a 500ml(!!) bottle of Maison Marc Tomato Soup, I start to question my choices. So let's make it instead!

To say I was addicted was an understatement:
So like any cook, I reviewed the ingredients in the pursuit of creating a recipe to copy it As otherwise, it was becomings an extremely expensive habit.
And what I saw shocked me - my favourite ever Tomato Soup had three ingredients. Super simple. And yet ridiculously tasty.
Key Considerations for Success
- Use Vine Tomatoes (ideally when they're in season i.e. May-Oct in UK)
- Use the best quality Extra Virgin Olive Oil you can source
- Use flakey sea salt, like Blackthorn Sea Salt
- Do NOT skip roasting the veg - it brings so much flavour to the party!
Unaesthetic photo, but this is the extent of my obsession: super simple tomato soup with a cheese toastie - heaven on a plate! Even better because the toastie was made using Barnett's Bakery Cheese and Leek loaf.
Ingredients for Tomato Soup

How To Make Three Ingredient Tomato Soup
Preheat oven to 200C (fan) / 240C conventional / 390F.
Line baking tray with baking paper (parchment) and start to layer on prepared vegetables: chopped celery, quartered tomatoes and peeled garlic.
Add additional pantry items: olive oil, salt and pepper.
Roast in oven for 45 minutes. Then blend until smooth and pass through a fine sieve to remove all seeds and skin.
Storage and Reheating
This soup stores really well; it's a great batch cook meal or make-ahead Soup Course for dinner parties. My kids love it too!

Reheat the Tomato Soup by heating up in microwave or in a pot on the hob until piping hot throughout.

Fran says
Tasted okay with the addition of good quality vegetable stock and a squirm of tomato puree. The recipe as it was definitely did not make enough to feed two
Dorothy says
Definitely easy and incredibly tasty! It’s so easy to just chuck all of the ingredients in an oven tray and forget about it until it’s done. Makes the most deliciously rich tomato soup. This will definitely be going on rotation
