Tomato Soup with Seafood

This is the most delicious soup I've ever had in my life! You absolutely must make it! When I started eating it, I never imagined that by the time I reached the bottom of the bowl I'd want to lick the spoon and my fingers clean. I wanted seconds, but the soup turned out to be filling too. The next urge that hit me was to share it with someone right away — I treated my grandma to it, and the same thing happened. In short, if you don't try this soup, your life will have been wasted :)) I'm serious. You can use any kind of seafood.

Composition / ingredients

Servings:

Tomatoes (medium-sized)

Mussels

Squid

Onion (small/medium; red onion is best, and if you use white, choose a small one)

Water

Hard cheese (it's important that the cheese melts; I use suluguni)

Lemon juice (to drizzle over the seafood; I use a fresh lemon)

Cloves (for the tomato base; you can use ground cloves — a knife-tip's worth)

Dry herbs (for the tomato base, any dried herbs; I used an Italian-herb blend: basil, oregano, thyme, chili)

Chili pepper (for the tomato base; I used ground, but you can swap in fresh pepper in proportion)

Ground coriander (for the tomato base)

0.25

Garlic

Fresh herbs (for garnish; basil is ideal, but the store didn't have any — parsley worked great as a substitute)

Salt

Ground black pepper (for the seafood)

0.25

Cooking method

Cooking time: 40 min

Step 1:

Get the prepped ingredients ready. Wash the tomatoes and herbs, peel the onion, and thaw the seafood. Heat the water — it needs to be boiling by the time you pour the tomato base into the pot.
Step 2:

Grate the tomatoes. Discard the skins.
Step 3:

You'll get a consistency like this.
Step 4:

Cut the onion into rings — not necessarily thin, since you'll blend it later.
Step 5:

Put everything in a pot, salt it, and add the spices for the base (see the ingredient notes). You can add a little sweetness to cut the acidity.
Step 6:

Finely chop the garlic.
Step 7:

Fry the garlic with the black pepper in oil in a skillet or small saucepan, then add the seafood and a pinch of salt.
Step 8:

You can cook the base and the seafood in two pans at the same time. The tomatoes cook for about 20 minutes; the seafood fries over low heat for about 15 minutes. Be sure to stir the seafood so it doesn't scorch.
Step 9:

When the oil starts to bubble, the seafood is done.
Step 10:

Transfer it to a bowl and, 30 seconds after taking it off the heat, drizzle it with lemon juice.
Step 11:

Stir.
Step 12:

Here's what the finished soup looks like.
Step 13:

Blend it with a blender until smooth and puréed.
Step 14:

Time to serve! Pour the hot soup into a bowl. Top it with the seafood and sprinkle on the cheese (it will start to melt and spread right away). Garnish with fresh green herbs. Treat your loved ones and enjoy the well-earned applause!
Step 15:

Enjoy!

Honestly, it's so delicious that I spent the rest of the day in a happy daze. I think if you make this for someone you love, it'll work like a love potion :)) I recorded the video with a genuine wish to share this delicious happiness. %)
