Soup tonight

Boy I do love a good soup and tonight it is soup night.
I always find soup a treat be it packet, tinned or best of all homemade. Last week with our Abel & Cole delivery we tried one of their Soup Boxes.

The soup box contains all the ingredients and recipes to make three wholesome organic soups, the recipes change each week too. Charlotte said shall we give it a go and I didn’t have to think more than one second to say “Yes”

Our box turned up with our usual delivery and sure enough we had every thing to make three fantastic soups. Lemon, Kale & Red Pepper, Arabian Citrus Broth and Carrot & Turmeric.

We have tried the Carrot & Turmeric at the weekend and tonight we will be having the Lemon, Kale & Red Pepper tonight.

Nice crusty bread, steaming hot homemade soup on a cold January night! What could be tastier

  Carrot & Turmeric Soup

from 
Abel & Cole

10 mins prep – 15 mins cooking

Ingredients

·  500g carrots

·  2 apples

·  1 tsp-sized nugget of fresh turmeric, peeled

·  A slice of garlic

·  1 lemon, juice and zest

·  500ml water

·  A pinch of sea salt

Step by step

1.

Peel and roughly chop your carrots. Peel and chop your apple, discarding the core.

2.

Place them in a food processor or blender with the turmeric, garlic, zest and juice of the lemon, a trickle of the water and a pinch of sea salt.

3.

Blend, adding the rest of the water, little by little, till it’s as smooth as you can get it. It won’t be silky smooth using raw veg and fruit, but it will taste amazing. Taste. Tweak seasoning, add more turmeric if you like.

4.

Sup the soup cold (like a savoury smoothie) or gently warm it.
