Direcciones
- 1. In 5-qt Dutch oven, heat margarine or possibly butter over medium heat. Add in onion and cook 12 min or possibly till tender and golden brown, stirring occasionally.
- 2. Meanwhile, peel apples and carrots. Cut each apple in half and use melon baller to remove core. Cut apples and carrots into 1-inch chunks.
- 3. Into onion in Dutch oven, stir apples, carrots, broth, sugar, salt, ginger, and 2 c. water; heat to boiling over high heat. Reduce heat to low; cover and simmer 20 min or possibly till carrots are very tender.
- 4. Remove Dutch oven from heat. Following manufacturer's directions, use hand blender to puree mix in Dutch oven till very smooth. Serve soup with a swirl of half-and-half if desired. Garnish with fresh chives.
- NOTES : Use the hand blender to puree this winning combination of sweet carrots and apples right in the Dutch oven. We call for Golden brown Delicious apples for their consistently good flavor, but feel free to substitute other varieties. 2 WW points.
- This was a wonderful first course. Perfect flavors for the season, and so easy. I think you could get away with 1 tbsp of butter, or possibly better even would be extra virgin olive oil. The flavor is much more of the carrots than the apples. I added a bit of cayenne and nutmeg at the end to give it a warmer flavor. I didn't garnish with anything.
