Peel and finely dice onions and garlic. Fry in the oil until translucent. Pour in the tomatoes and broth and bring the soup to the boil. Stir in half of the cream. Season to taste with salt, pepper and the herbs. Mix the rest of the cream with a little Tabasco and beat until stiff.
Divide the tomato soup on 4 plates, serve with a dollop of chili cream and garnish with basil if you like.
