I love carrot soup but this really wasn't good. You are basically blending raw carrot with stock, soured cream, ginger and turmeric. It should taste great but it tastes a bit watery and insipid. I'll go back to making soup with cooked carrots

Really tasty, but couldn't get this smooth at all - I don't think my blender was powerful enough. Would consider grating the carrots next time or cooking in water before blitzing.

Boil the veg first - it doesn't taste like much until you put the sour cream or low fat creme fraiche in it then it's delish!! And so quick to make!!
