Creamy Tomato Soup with Basil

Peel the onion and chop it roughly. Clean the carrots and celeriac and cut them into cubes of approx. 1 cm. Peel the garlic and lightly press it with the flat side of a knife.

Heat 60 g of olive oil in a pot over medium heat. Add carrots and celeriac and sauté for about 3 minutes, stirring frequently. Add garlic and granulated sugar and sauté for another minute, stirring constantly. Add the onion and continue to sauté everything together for about 5 minutes.

Add the canned peeled tomatoes, salt, and pepper. Stir everything well and let the soup simmer uncovered over medium heat for about 10 minutes.
