Empty contents into a soup pot or Dutch oven with a lid. Add light cream, milk and diced onions. Stir well on medium heat. Add grated carrot and pepper and stir well. Combine cornstarch with an equal amount of water then stir it into the soup. Bring to a simmer then cover with the lid, lower heat to medium-low and cook for 15-18 minutes stirring occasionally.
