Carrot soup

My family loves soups, especially on cold, winter nights. I usually prepare cream soups with any ingredients available at home. This carrot soup is my daughter’s favorite one. Lydia loves all kinds of soups as long as they are creamy. This is how this carrot soup also came up. If you do not like spicy flavors just omit the jalapeno seeds.

Ingredients

  • 1/4 teacup oliveoil
  • 50 grams butter
  • 1 large onion
  • 2 potatoes
  • 1 kg carrots
  • 2 chicken stock cubes
  • 1 teaspoon grounded ginger
  • 1/4 teaspoon jalapeno seeds (optional)
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried parsley
  • Salt, Pepper
  • Water
  • 200 ml heavy cream

 

Peel the onion, the potatoes and the carrots and then cut them into chunks.

Heat the oil with the butter on high heat and saute the onions, the potatoes and the carrots for about 5 minutes. Add all the spices, the chicken stock cubes and water so as to cover all the ingredients.

Bring to boil, lower the heat, cover the pot and simmer for approximately 30 minutes or until the carrots are tender enough. Poor the soup into a food processor and blend it until you have a smooth, creamy soup.

Add the heavy cream and serve immediately.
