Ingredients for the Magic Potion
Gather these ingredients, and do it quickly because your stomach is probably already growling:
- 4 cups carrots, peeled and chopped
- 1 onion, diced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 4 cups vegetable broth (or chicken broth if that’s your thing)
- 1 teaspoon ginger, grated (because we all need a little zing)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Optional: A splash of cream for those extra gourmet points
Instructions: The Road to Deliciousness
Now, let’s roll up those sleeves and get to work:
- First things first, turn on your Instant Pot and set it to ‘Sauté’ mode. Add the olive oil and let it heat up a bit.
- Once the pot is sizzling, toss in the diced onion and minced garlic. Sauté until the onion is translucent and your kitchen starts to smell like a fancy restaurant.
- Next, throw in the chopped carrots and ginger. Stir them around to get cozy with the onion and garlic.
- Pour in the vegetable broth, and while you’re at it, sprinkle some salt and pepper like you’re a culinary artist.
- Now, close the lid, seal the vent, and set your Instant Pot to ‘Manual’ for 10 minutes. Go ahead and do a little dance while you wait.
- Once it’s done, let the pressure release naturally for about 10 minutes, then do a quick release for any remaining pressure.
- Using an immersion blender, blend the soup until it’s smooth and creamy. If you don’t have one of those, carefully transfer the soup to a regular blender in batches (just don’t explode the blender – that’s a whole different recipe!).
- If you like, swirl in a splash of cream to make it extra decadent.
- Finally, taste the magic and adjust the seasoning if needed. Serve warm, preferably with a side of crusty bread, and voilà! You just made carrot soup that could make even a rabbit weep tears of joy!
There you have it! An extremely easy carrot soup that’s sure to impress both your dinner guests and your inner chef. Enjoy your creation!
