Zuppa Pomodoro is italian and it means tomato soup. Usually I'm not very keen on tomato soup. But I wanted to try to create something different that could change my view of tomato soup and it was successful indeed ! I think I'm going to make this zuppa pomodoro more often in the future. This is the recipe :

ingredients for 2 servings :

1 can of tomato
8 oz (whipped) cream or creme fraiche
2 oz bacon (in dices)
200 mL water
1/2 tsp basil leaves
1/2 tsp oregano
1/2 tsp nutmeg (powder)
2 tsp mint leaves
1 tbsp olive oil (or more..)
2 chopped garlic cloves
salt and pepper

Heat the oil in a pot and put in the chopped garlic. Stir and then put in the bacon. Stir again for about 1-2 minute. Put the tomato, cream, oregano, basil, nutmeg and mint into the pot. Stir again. Finally pour the water into the pot and season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve with some croutons on top of the soup and enjoy the yummy creamy zuppa pomodoro, combined with fresh touch of mint.
