This Gnocchi Tomato Soup is easy, creamy, and delicious. A comforting bowl of Gnocchi soup is hearty and nutritious because of these pillowy dumplings, and the best part is that since the recipe uses coconut milk, it is vegan! Tomato Soup is our family favorite. The creamy goodness of this soup soaked with bread is our ultimate comfort meal. For a long time, I have used it to make it creamy by using heavy cream. A few years back, having a tomato coconut milk soup in a restaurant changed my perspective forever. It was delicious, and the texture was dreamy. I replicated the recipe at home, and believe me, it was even better. This time, when making the soup, I added Gnocchi to make it a satisfying meal. On cold winter nights, having this warm bowl is comforting in itself. This is a soup that everyone in the family loves, and the kids love it even more.
What Ingredients are needed for Gnocchi Tomato soup?
Gnocchi-I have used Dried Store-bought Gnocchi. You can use dry or fresh but do not use homemade ones. They break in the soup and make it messy. Tomato -I have used Crushed tomato with juice. Use any good quality tomato. Garlic Shallots Olive Oil Italian Seasoning Coconut Milk Vegetable stock/Water Salt Pepper Red Pepper Flakes Brown Sugar
How to make the Gnocchi Tomato Soup?
Take a pan/dutch pan. Add oil to it and heat it properly. When it is hot enough, add chopped shallots and chopped garlic to it. When it starts to get brown, add crushed tomato to it . Let it cook on a low, medium flame for 3-4 minutes. Sauteing will give these tomatoes a wonderful flavor. Add Vegetable stock to it. If you like your soup to be smooth, use a hand blender(if you are using chunky tomatoes). Add the gnocchi to the pot and cook on the low flame for 5-6 minutes. As soon as it starts cooking, the soup will start to thicken. Add the coconut milk and let it cook for 1 minute. Add Italian seasoning and red pepper flakes to it. Add salt and pepper to taste. If the soup tastes sour, add brown sugar. Increase or decrease the thickness according to your taste. Your Gnocchi tomato soup is ready to serve.
