Whip up a satisfying and filling soup to satisfy a crowd.
Ingredients:
  • 1kg carrots, peeled, chopped
  • 2 garlic cloves, unpeeled
  • 54.00 gm maple syrup
  • 36.40 gm olive oil
  • 1 litre chicken style liquid stock
  • 37.60 gm light sour cream
  • 2 Turkish bread rolls, cut into 2cm cubes
Instructions:
  • Preheat oven to 200C/180C fan. Spread carrots and garlic on a baking tray lined with parchment paper. Drizzle with maple syrup and half of the oil, then season with salt and pepper. Roast for 30-35 minutes, turning halfway, until carrots are tender.
  • In a large saucepan over high heat, combine stock, 2 cups cold water, and squeezed garlic from its skins. Add carrot, cover, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 5 minutes. Remove from heat.
  • Smoothly blend soup with a stick blender, then simmer covered on low heat for 10 minutes. Gently stir in sour cream.
  • In a large bowl, toss the bread with the remaining oil and season with pepper. Spread the seasoned bread on an oven tray and bake for 5 to 6 minutes, turning occasionally, until golden all over. Serve the soup with the freshly baked croutons.
