Method

Step 1 of 4

To make the basil oil, blanch basil leaves in boiling water for 20 seconds, then drain and refresh in iced water to cool. Pat dry with paper towel. Combine oil, leaves and 1/4 tsp salt in a blender or small food processor and blend for 1 minute or until smooth. Transfer to a jug and stand for at least 30 minutes before using.

Step 2 of 4

Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Cook onion for 5 minutes, stirring regularly. Add garlic and wine, and cook for 2 minutes or until reduced by half. Stir in tomatoes and stock, and simmer for 10 minutes or until thickened slightly. Remove from heat and, using a stick blender, purée soup until smooth. Season with salt, pepper and a pinch of sugar.

Step 3 of 4

Return pan to medium-high heat and bring to a simmer. Add tortellini and simmer for 4-5 minutes or until tender. Tear bocconcini into pieces.

Step 4 of 4

Serve soup topped with bocconcini and basil leaves, and drizzled with a little basil oil.
