Directions

  1. Heat up some oil paint or melt a small amount of butter in a pot.
  2. Add wheat flour to thicken the soup.
  3. Add the tomatoes, a little broth (in cube form), and water to achieve the desired tomato flavor.
  4. After cooking everything, add fresh lemon juice (at least 1/2 cup, or more, depending on the acidity of the lemon) and sugar (about 3 tablespoons). ≈ 3 min
  5. It’s important to taste and adjust the ratio of sugar and acidity. ≈ 3 min
