I love it ..... anyways .....

The Stuff

Serves 4.

3 Tbs butter
2 lbs carrot, sliced

1 medium onion, chopped
3 Tbs fresh ginger, crushed
3 garlic cloves, crushed
2 Tbs thyme
1/4 cup fresh parsley
1 pint cup heavy cream
4 cup low sodium chicken or vegetable broth
salt/ pepper to taste

What to do

1) Melt the butter over medium heat in a soup pot. Add shallots, onions, garlic and ginger. Saute for 5-10 min until onions soften and smell filters into home.

2) Add carrots, thyme, fresh pepper to taste, and broth. Cover and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and remove lid slightly. Cook until carrots are soft.
