I made this version with slightly sweeter tomatoes than I did previously, and added a little caster sugar which made the soup more palatable for my kids.
It came out better than I expected, but I would be tempted to leave out the basil at my next attempt – and make sure I strain it before serving.
The kids complained about the tiny pieces of tomato skin in the soup which I didn’t mind.
