Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Instructions
Things You'll Need:
- Carrots (5 or 6 big carrots or a small bag of baby carrots)
- Sweet potatoes (2 or 3 sweet potatoes or a bag of cubed ones)
- 1 large onion
- 4 to 8 cloves garlic (peeled)
- 1 to 2 pints vegetable or chicken broth
- Vegetable knife
- Large saucepan
- Salt and pepper
- Food processor
-
Step 1
Peel and chop the carrots, onion and sweet potatoes into cubes and place them in the saucepan. Add the peeled garlic cloves to the pan too.
-
Step 2
Pour the broth into the pan. If it does not cover the vegetables completely, add some water to just cover all of them.
-
Step 3
Bring the soup to a boil, then turn the heat to medium low so it is barely simmering. Let it simmer for 20 to 30 minutes, or until all the vegetables are soft. Check by inserting a sharp knife into a few of the vegetable cubes.
-
Step 4
Turn off the heat and allow the soup to cool slightly. Pour the soup into a food processor and blend it until smooth, or until it reaches your desired consistency.
-
Step 5
Season the soup with salt and pepper to taste, then serve.
