Servings: persons

1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 onion, chopped
3 garlic cloves, chopped
2 chunks ginger, chopped
1 1/2 lbs carrots, peeled and sliced
6 cups chicken stock
1 (14 ounce) can evaporated milk (optional)

1
Heat the oil in a large pot on the stove.

Add the onions, cook till translucent.
3
Add garlic and 1 tablespoon chopped ginger.
4
Cook one minute.

Add sliced carrots, chicken stock, salt, pepper and grated ginger.
6
Cook until the carrots are very tender.
7
Using immersion blender, blend until smooth and check for flavor, adjust if necessary.

FOR THE GARLIC BREAD:
11
Combine the minced garlic, ginger and soft butter and spread on slices of French bread. Broil until golden (or in my case, until the bread catches fire and the smoke alarm goes off - however, this is not the recommended method.) Serve immediately with the Creamy Carrot Ginger Soup.

Tips for the best results

Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
Preheat the oven fully and bake on the middle rack for the most even results.
Check for doneness a few minutes early — a toothpick in the center should come out with just a few moist crumbs.
Let it cool before slicing so it sets properly and holds its shape.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.

Variations & substitutions

Use a neutral oil or a plant-based spread in place of butter for a dairy-free version.
