Carrot Soup

This basic carrot soup is just ridiculously delcious. Healthy too!

You need:
  • Carrots (but of course!). About 10 of them.
  • Onions. 1-2, depending on the size and how you like your soup.
  • Garlic. Oh yes. 3-4 cloves.
  • 1,5 liters (that is, 6 cups) of water with vegetable bullion (or vegetable broth)
  • A little black pepper and cayenne pepper - depending on your preferences.

You do (it's oh so easy):

Peel & chop carrots and onions, saute the onions and garlic in a little olive oil, then add water, boullion and carrot and bring to boil. Let boil for 25 minutes or so, puree it and it's done!

You may want to add (if you feel confident experimenting a little):

Carrots go well with ginger. A little lemon juice may work well too. The recipe I used the first time I made it called for sun dried tomatoes, but I think it did little but flatten the soup (and they're expensive!).

Freezes well too.

Enjoy!
