I love thick creamy soups that are full of natural flavor. A vegetarian supplement is essential and I wanted to prepare it in the form of a soup.

I usually find soup recipes have some cream added for more flavor but this Carrot soup recipe was easy to make without the cream, a delicious soup that can be enjoyed all year round.

Preparation time: 5 minutes

Cooking time:25- 30 minutes

Serves: 4

Ingredients

Olive oil / butter – 2 tbsp

Carrots – 325 g / 4 medium, roughly chopped into 1 inch after peeling

Potato – 100 g/1 small, peeled & chopped

Pepper – 1 tsp

Salt – as per taste

Water – refer below

 

Directions

1. Heat olive oil in a medium, heavy bottomed pan over medium heat. Add chopped carrots and potatoes, stirring for a couple of minutes.

Season with salt and pepper. Add 1/4 cup of water. Cover and cook, stirring occasionally for 5 to 10 minutes until they are almost soft. Turn off the heat and let it cool.

 

2. Once they have cooled. Place the carrots & potatoes in a blender with 1 cup water to make a smooth paste.

 

3. Transfer it into the same heavy bottomed pan you used earlier. 

Heat until it boils. Serve hot with bread.

 

 

 

Good with: Crusty bread
