Directions
- Finely dice the onion, celery and garlic. Wash and shred the carrots (use a large cheese shredder). Cook all four in a large pot with 1/4 cup olive oil over medium heat until softened (about 10 minutes).
- Wash and dice the tomatoes. Add them to the cooked down vegetables and cook the mixture until the tomatoes are soft and begin to fall apart (about 10 minutes).
- Add the chicken base and one cup of water (or just two cups broth) along with the rest of the ingredients: bread crumbs, salt, pepper, brown sugar, worchestershire sauce and chopped basil. Continue to cook for 10 more minutes.
- Working in batches, puree the mixture in a blender until smooth. Be very careful; hot liquids in a blender can be very dangerous!
