Method

1

Melt 1 tbsp butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add diced onion and cook 3–4 minutes until softened, stirring occasionally.

2

Add minced garlic and cook 30 seconds until fragrant.

3

Pour in canned tomatoes and vegetable broth. Bring to a simmer and cook 10–12 minutes.

4

If desired, blend soup smooth using an immersion blender or transfer carefully to a blender, then return to pan. Stir in heavy cream and season with salt and pepper.

5

While soup simmers, heat a skillet over medium heat. Spread remaining 2 tbsp butter on one side of each bread slice.

6

Place two slices butter-side down in the skillet. Layer cheese evenly on top, then top with remaining two slices butter-side up.

7

Cook 3–4 minutes until the bottom is golden and crispy. Carefully flip and cook 2–3 minutes more until the second side is golden and cheese melts.

8

Transfer soup to bowls and ladle hot. Slice sandwiches in half and serve alongside or dipped into soup.
