CARROT AND SWEET BASIL SOUP

[Guest guest]

CARROT AND SWEET BASIL SOUP - I think I made this one up! Sweet basil tastes

very different to the normal basil. Is delish! Again, do things to taste. I

rarely follow recipes ...

1lb of carrots, cubed or thinly sliced

About 10 little red shallots, chopped

Handful of sweet basil, chopped small

1 pint of vegetable stock

Add a dash of oil to the soup pan and fry the shallots gently, to light brown.

As they're turning in colour, add the carrots. Add 1 pint of vegetable stock,

stir in the sweet basil and cook till carrots soft.

Pop into the blender and voila! You're done.

To look swish, pop a couple of basil leaves on for decoration.
