Tomato Potato Soup

A comforting and hearty soup combining the flavors of tomato and potato.

1. Peel and chop the potatoes into small cubes.
2. Take a large pot and add the potatoes along with enough water to cover them. Bring the water to a boil and let the potatoes cook until they are tender.
3. Meanwhile, remove the skins from the tomatoes and chop them into small pieces.
4. Once the potatoes are cooked, drain the water and set them aside.
5. In the same pot, heat some olive oil and add the chopped tomatoes. Cook them for a few minutes until they soften.
6. Add the cooked potatoes to the pot and stir well to combine the flavors.
7. Use a blender or an immersion blender to puree the mixture into a smooth soup. If desired, you can leave some chunks for texture.
8. Return the soup to the pot and heat it over low heat. Add salt, pepper, and any other desired seasonings to taste.
9. Let the soup simmer for a few more minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
10. Serve the tomato potato soup hot, garnished with fresh herbs or a dollop of sour cream if desired. Enjoy!
