Carrot and Spring Onion Soup A Thick, Smooth, Warming Winter Soup |
|
|
2lb carrots, roughly chopped 12 spring onions, trimmed and chopped 1 small potato, peeled and grated 4 cloves garlic, peeled and roughly chopped 2 pints vegetable stock 1 tsp. thyme 1 Tbls. olive oil
|
Heat the olive oil in a pan. Add the carrots, spring onions, garlic and thyme. Put the lid on the pan and sweat over a low heat for 10 minutes. Next add the stock, bring to the boil and them simmer for a further 5 minutes. Remove from the heat.
Put the liquid and vegetables through a liquidiser and blitz until completely smooth. Return to the pan with the potato and simmer for a further 10 minutes to allow the potato to thicken the soup. Do not allow to boil as this will give the soup a burnt flavour.
Serve with some crusty bread.
Notes: If you only have a food processor or blender and not a liquidiser, you will need to sieve the vegetables, which will take longer. Alternatively, you won't have a smooth soup.
If serving as a starter, this recipe will serve 8!
