Ingredients

2 tbs oil
I large/2 medium onions Finely chopped
675/1 1/2lb carrots finely sliced
1 thumb piece of fresh ginger
900ml/ 1 1/2 pints chicken stock
2 tbs ginger wine (this is the magic ingredient)
Salt and pepper

Handy Hint

I make my own stock from our Sunday roast chicken in a pressure cooker. Just the bones and an onion. About 1-2 hours. Store in the fridge.

Method

Heat the oil
Add onions gently over low heat 10 mins. Stir regularly until soft but not brown.
Stir in carrots and the piece of ginger gently cook for another 10 mins. Stir occasionally
Add the stock and ginger wine. Bring to the boil. Cover and simmer for 30 mins or until carrots are soft.
Cool
Take out the ginger and discard.
Put into a food processor and blend. ( I only ever blend the solids then mix with the liquid)

It's not cheaper or quicker than a tin but it's so much better for you. It's lovely and comforting if you've got a cold.
