Sopita de Zanahoria (CARROT SOUP)

 

Ingredients

• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 medium yellow onion, sliced
• 1 1/2 pounds carrots, cut into 1/4-inch rounds
• 4 cups low-sodium chicken or vegetable broth
• 1 tablespoon grated ginger
• 1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
• 1/2 cup heavy cream
• 3 tablespoons chopped fresh dill

Directions

1. Heat the oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened but not browned, 5 to 6 minutes.
2. Stir in the carrots, broth, ginger, 1¼ teaspoons of the salt, and the pepper. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until the carrots are soft, about 20 minutes. Let cool at least 10 minutes.
3. Using a blender, puree the soup in batches until smooth. Return to pot and rewarm over medium heat.
4. Meanwhile, whisk the cream in a small bowl until soft peaks form. Fold in the remaining salt and the dill. Divide the soup among individual bowls and top with the dill cream.
