Instructions

easy and very quick to complete

Peel the onion and finely dice. Halve the garlic clove and slice very thinly. Heat olive oil in a saucepan and let the onions become translucent, then briefly fry the chopped garlic. Add the tomato paste and deglaze everything with the broth. Bring to a boil briefly, using a blender if the onions are too large. Then add the passata and let the soup simmer for about 5 minutes. Season generously with herbs, pepper, and chili to taste. Divide the North Sea crabs among soup bowls and ladle the hot soup over them. Garnish with a little cream and a basil leaf, if desired. Serve with a baguette. I omitted any additional salt, as it would come from the broth and the North Sea crabs.
