Curried Tomato Soup




28oz Can Crushed Tomatoes
1 1/2 Cups Vegetable Stock

3 Cloves Garlic, crushed
One Medium-Hot Pepper, chopped fine
     I Used a Fresno Pepper
1 Tbs. Curry Powder
1/8 Cup Olive Oil

1/2 Cup Milk or Cream
1/4 Cup Fresh Basil, chopped
1/8 Cup Cilantro (Optional), chopped

1 Grilled Cheese Sandwich

Heat olive oil over a medium hot flame.  Add garlic, pepper, and curry powder.  Heat one minute, stir frequently.  Add tomatoes and stock.  Heat 20 minutes.  Remove from heat, blend in milk.  Add basil and, if you'd like, cilantro. 

Yeah, it's that easy.

Serve, clearly, with a grilled cheese sandwich.
