Selam Everybody.....Merhaba from Turkey...

If you notice I recently post many soup recipes. Yes, it's chilly outside and nothing can suit with that than a bowl of hot yummy soup.

And what about carrot soup? definitely, it's always my choice to bring warmth not only on our dinner table.

(*)Make croutons: 

• about 250 g white bread (no crust) cut into bite size
• about 2 Tbsp olive oil

Heat olive oil on skillet, saute garlic until fragrant about 3 minutes. Add in bread and toss to combine, sprinkle pinch of salt. Toss until bread lightly brown on surfaces.

Method:

1. In a medium saucepan heat olive oil over high heat. Add onion and stirring until soft and transparent about 5 minutes (do not burn). 
2. Add in carrots and chicken stock and bring to the boil. Reduce heat to medium and simmer, uncovered, for 12-15 minutes or until tender.
