Thick Tomato and Rosemary Soup [recipe]

[Guest guest]

Here is another tomato soup recipe that has proved a big hit every

time I've made it and which is really easy to make. I got this

recipe from a vegetarian slimming magazine that came out here in the

80s. As you might imagine the magazine didn't last long (not a large

enough readership, perhaps it was a bit before its time) but this

recipe has been a firm favourite of mine ever since. The first time

I made it was back in the days before I had a blender and I had to

put it through a sieve instead.
