Recipe from Spring 2013 issue of True Natural Health

Ingredients:

600 g organic carrots, peeled and roughly chopped
1 med brown onion, roughly chopped
1 tbsp ghee or coconut oil for frying
1½ tsp cumin seeds
¼ tsp mild cayenne pepper

Method

On a low heat in a medium sized pot, fry onion in the fat for a couple of minutes till soft.

Add cumin seeds and cayenne pepper and fry for another minute.

Using a stick blender, blend the soup until smooth. Taste and season with extra salt and pepper as desired.

Note: As with most soups, this soup tastes wonderful the following day.
