Step by step

Preparation steps

Check off the steps you've completed; your progress is saved on this device.

Fry the paste

Melt the butter in a pot and fry the tomato paste for two minutes, until it darkens; this is what brings out the sweetness.

Prepare the tomatoes

Grate the tomatoes, pass them through a sieve to leave the skins behind, then add them to the pot and simmer for ten minutes.

Add the liquid

Pour in the hot water or stock a little at a time and simmer for fifteen minutes, skimming any foam.

Finish with milk

Take the pot off the heat, stir in the warmed milk slowly, and adjust the salt at this stage.

Serve

Serve in deep bowls with a pinch of oregano and, if you like, grated cheese.

Time's up! Enjoy your meal.
