Instructions
  1. In a large pot, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium heat. Add finely chopped onions and diced carrots, sautéing for about 5–7 minutes until the onions become translucent and the carrots soften.
  2. Stir in the canned crushed tomatoes and tomato paste, mixing well. Then, pour in half a cup of white wine, bringing the mixture to a simmer. Allow it to bubble gently for about 10 minutes.
  3. Toss in a handful of fresh basil leaves, stirring to incorporate their aromatic essence. Allow the mixture to simmer for an additional 5 minutes.
  4. Using an immersion blender, carefully blend the soup until it is completely smooth and creamy.
  5. Pour in the heavy cream, stirring well to combine. Season the soup with salt and pepper to taste. Heat the mixture on low for 5 minutes while stirring occasionally.
  6. Ladle the soup into warm bowls, garnishing with additional fresh basil leaves if desired.
