Servings: persons

1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1 large onion, chopped
2 pounds sweet carrots, peeled and thinly sliced
Salt to taste
1/4 teaspoon sugar
2 quarts water, chicken stock, or vegetable stock
6 tablespoons rice, preferably Arborio
Freshly ground pepper to taste
2 tablespoons chopped fresh herbs, such as chervil, mint, chives, or parsley, for garnish
1 cup toasted croutons for garnish (optional)

1
Heat the butter and olive oil in a large, heavy soup pot over medium-low heat and add the onion.
2
Cook, stirring, until tender, about 5 minutes.
3
Add the carrots and 1/2 teaspoon salt, cover partially and cook for another 10 minutes, stirring often, until the vegetables are tender and fragrant.
4
Add the rice, water or stock, salt (about 1 1/2 teaspoons), and sugar.
5
Bring to a boil, reduce the heat, cover and simmer 30 minutes, or until the carrots are tender and the soup is fragrant.
6
Blend the soup either with a hand blender, in batches in a blender (cover the top with a towel and hold it down to avoid hot splashes), or through a food mill fitted with the fine blade.
7
The rice should no longer be recognizable (it thickens the soup).
8
Return to the pot.
9
Stir and taste.
10
Adjust salt, add a generous amount of freshly ground pepper, and heat through.
11
If the sweetness of the carrots needs a boost, add another pinch of sugar.
12
Serve, garnishing each bowl with croutons and a sprinkle of herbs.
