A subtly spiced low-fat soup to warm you up on a winter night. Ingredients:
1 onion, chopped |
1 teaspoon olive oil |
1 teaspoon cumin seed, toasted |
1 pinch chili flakes or 1 pinch chili powder |
2 teaspoons soft brown sugar |
1 2/3 cups chicken stock or 1 2/3 cups vegetable stock |
2 tablespoons cilantro, chopped |
6 carrots, peeled and chopped |
salt and pepper |
Directions:
1. Fry the onion in a little oil until it softens.
2. Add the cumin and chili and cook for a minute then add the carrot, sugar and stock and bring to a simmer.
3. Cook for 10 minutes or until the carrot is very soft, then whizz in a blender. Add some more stock or water if the soup is too thick and reheat if you need to.
4. Stir through the cilantro, season well.
5. Add a spoonful of crème fraîche to each bowl to serve, if you like.
