Soup Ingredients

3 large carrots
1 tbsp grated ginger
1 tsp turmeric
A pinch of cayenne pepper, plus extra to serve
20g wholemeal bread
1 tbsp soured cream, plus extra to serve
200ml vegetable stock

Instructions

Prepare the carrots: Peel the large carrots carefully and chop them into smaller pieces to facilitate blending and even cooking.
Combine ingredients in blender: Place the chopped carrots, grated ginger, turmeric, a pinch of cayenne pepper, wholemeal bread, soured cream, and vegetable stock into a blender.
Blend until smooth: Blitz all the ingredients together until the mixture is perfectly smooth and homogeneous in texture.
Heat the soup: Transfer the blended soup to a pot or saucepan and warm it on the stovetop until it is piping hot, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
Serve with garnishes: Ladle the hot soup into bowls and swirl in some extra soured cream or sprinkle a little cayenne pepper on top, according to your taste preference.

Notes

You can adjust the amount of cayenne pepper based on your preferred spice level.
Use fresh ginger for the best flavor punch and immune-boosting effect.
If a smoother texture is desired, strain the soup after blending.
This soup is best served fresh but can be refrigerated for up to 2 days.
For a vegan version, substitute soured cream with a plant-based alternative.
