Instructions: Cut up bacon, onion and tomatoes into small pieces. Cook gently with garlic and seasoning in a little butter. Add the stock or water and simmer for 35 mins. Make a thin white sauce using 1 oz butter, flour, milk and seasoning. When cooked, blend carefully with the tomato soup

(which must be strained). Both must be hot but not boiling. Add the crab or lobster and cream. Serve with croutons.
