Ingredients

Convert cups to grams →

  • 800 g (1.8 lb) diced tomatoes
  • 180 g (6.3 oz) stale wheat bread
  • 100 g (3.5 oz) onion
  • 2 clove garlic
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 700 ml (3 cup) water
  • 6 sheet sage
  • 0.75 tsp salt

Method

  1. Cut bread into small cubes. Finely chop onion and garlic, then wash and thinly slice the sage leaves.
  2. Soften onion in oil for 5 minutes. Add garlic and sage for 1 minute, then tomatoes, water and salt and simmer for 14 minutes.
  3. Stir in bread and cook over low heat for 10 minutes, stirring often. The thick soup should be soft while retaining a few small bread pieces.

Tip: Untested: check tenderness and thickness on your own stove. Quantities are intended for four servings and have not been measured in practice.
