Ingredients
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 onion

- ¼–½ tsp dried chilli
- 250g/9oz carrots

Method

Heat the oil in a large lidded saucepan over a medium-high heat. Gently fry the onion with a pinch of salt until soft and lightly golden – this should take 8–10 minutes. Add the chilli flakes and fry for a further minute.

Blend the soup using a stick blender. Season to taste with more salt and pepper and add a little apple cider vinegar, to taste, if the soup is lacking brightness and vibrancy.
