TOMATO SOUP FROM EXTREMADURA

                                 

                Tomato soup with extremadura

                  I have made this soup for http://thedaringkitchen.com in the daring cooks challenge.This is very easy to make and had done some variations in the soup.I gave it an Indian touch to the soup actually this soup has the origin from Spain. 

                    Really it tasted sooooo good.After finish doing the soup I gave a sip to my elder daughter she grabbed the bowl and ranaway.She returned the empty bowl and left nothing for me.

                         Do try this soup and beware..........reserve some for you and show the bowl to others,otherwise you won't get even a sip.
