I just love that soup and we had bought our selfs a new refridgerator with a freezer with 3 drawers so I wanted to \u00c2\u00a0put some in the freezer too. \u00c2\u00a0And ofcourse my mom made a load of soup and it was delicious as always. We froze in a few liter soup that she had made extra. But all that soup.. well&#8230; its all gone.. we ate it all in January and February allrdy and \u00c2\u00a0a few weeks ago it started itching again.. I wanted to have carrotsoup.. Now our normal grocerystore where we always go was doing a redecorating that would last till half april so I was going to wait till then&#8230; And this week it was reopened.<\/p>\n<p>So I bought \u00c2\u00a0all the Ingredients I needed and today I made that famous carrotsoup myself.. for the first time.. And it was delicious, just like my mom makes it. Good job eh? Thank goodness I made a lot of extra so next time when I want \u00c2\u00a0some carrotsoup again, all I need to do is open my fridge n get myself a pack of frozen carrotsoup out. Since that soup turned out so well when I tried to make it by myself, I wanted to share the recipe here. So you guys can try it for yourself :). I am using European\/Dutch measurements so you might want to google up to converse to your own country.<\/p>\n<p>Carrotsoup \u00c2\u00a0(+\/- 8 portions)<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>500 gram Wintercarrots (those are like the biggest carrots u can find XD) fresh ofcourse.<\/li>\n<li>1 onion<\/li>\n<li>2 toes of garlic (I used garlic paste thats rdy to use)<\/li>\n<li>4 beef bouillon blocks (make sure its for 2 liter bouillon)<\/li>\n<li>40 grams margarine (butter)<\/li>\n<li>40 grams flour (all purpose)<\/li>\n<li>2 liter water<\/li>\n<li>3\/4 teaspoon curry powder<\/li>\n<li>150 gram grounded beef)<\/li>\n<li>1 thin leek<\/li>\n<li>parsley hacked in small pieces for finishing touch.<\/li>\n<li>salt and pepper<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Clean the carrots and cut them in \u00c2\u00a0big slices. Peel the onion and cut it in tiny pieces. peel the garlic and \u00c2\u00a0use a garlic press to make 2 \u00c2\u00a0toes into paste.<\/p>\n<p>Use a BIG soup pan thats large enough for \u00c2\u00a0all ingredients to fit when the soup is finished. \u00c2\u00a0Put in the pan: 2 liter water, the carrot slices, the cut onion, the pressed garlic and the bouillon blocks. Bring it to boiling and let it boil for 15 minutes.<\/p>\n<p>Take a large bowl (or 2) and a sieve and pour the soup \u00c2\u00a0thru the sieve into the bowl(s) so u have a clear bouillon left over. The carrot and onion and garlic that u catched in the sieve you going to have to mash completely (I used my kitchen machine with blades for this) U can put all the bouillon back together in the big pan and keep the mashed carrotmix seperated for now.<\/p>\n<p>In another pan you melt the butter and stir the flour through it when its melted. Then little by little you add some bouillon as you keep stirring till you have a lightly bound soup. \u00c2\u00a0Add this lightly bound soup back with the rest of the bouillon int the large pan and add the mashed carrotmix aswell. Now its time to test the taste of your soup first time. add a lil bit of the currypowder and try again.. then add \u00c2\u00a0a little more if neccesary and some salt and pepper just the way you like it.<\/p>\n<p>From the ground beef you gonna have to make tiny lil balls. Bring your soup back to boiling and add the lil meatballs. let that boil for about 10 minutes. In \u00c2\u00a0that time \u00c2\u00a0you can cut the leek into \u00c2\u00a0small\/thin slices (rings) and let those boil aswell for 5 minutes in the soup. (If you want to freeze in the soup then seperate what you going to use right away and add the leek to that so the part you going to freeze dont have the leek. You will have to add that when you going to use the soup.) Last but not least, when serving the soup sprinkle a little bit of the \u00c2\u00a0hacked parsley after pouring the soup into bowls\/plates.<\/p>\n<p>Make sure the soup has cooled down before you freeze it. enjoy \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>With Christmas when my mom was here I had asked her to make some carrotsoup like she used to make \u00c2\u00a0as long as I remember.
