Tomato Soup

In all Indian restaurants, tomato soup is a popular dish.

When I look at the menus of most Indian restaurants, I always see tomato soup next to the Indo-Chinese soups.

Let me show you how to make a restaurant-style tomato soup recipe and it is easy to make. The consistency of the sauce should not be either too thin like rasam or too thick.

To prepare the bread croutons for the tomato soup, check out my recipe on YouTube. I've shared the link in the video description.
