4 3/4 cups cherry tomatoes Vine Ripe, Chopped in Half
2 sticks celery Finely Chopped
1 white onion Medium, Finely Chopped
1 bay leaf
3 sprigs mint Finely Chopped
3 sprigs flat leaf parsley Finely Chopped
7 7/16 tablespoons double cream
3 1/8 cups vegetable stock
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 balsamic vinegar Caps of
1/2 teaspoon caster sugar
salt /Pepper, Season to Taste

1
Heat the oil in a large, heavy based saucepan, set over a medium heat until hot.
2
Drop the onion, celery, a little salt and the bay leaf into the pan. Sweat for 6-8 minutes until golden and slightly softened. Then, drop/stir in the sugar and vinegar. Leave to caramelize for a few minutes. Drop in the tomatoes, cover the dish with a tight fitting lid and leave to stew for 10 minutes.
3
Remove the lid, give the dish a good stir. Pour in the stock, stir well, then bring the heat down to a simmer and leave for about 20 minutes (Stiring occasionally).
4
Discard the bay leaf, then blend the soup up using a stick blender or a food processor until smooth. Then sieve the soup into a new large saucepan (This gets all of the seeds from the tomatoes out of the soup). Pour in the double cream and return the soup to a simmer. Season to taste.
5
When satisfied, ladle the soup out into the bowls and garnish with some double cream and a small pinch of the mixed herbs before serving.

Enjoy!
