From your cupboard
Vegetable oil, vegetable stock cube, dried thyme, ground cumin, salt and black pepper. Not included in the cost.
Method
- Peel and roughly chop 2 red onions. Peel the carrots and slice them into rounds about 1cm thick.
- Heat 2 tbsp oil in a large pan over a medium heat. Add the onions and cook for 8 minutes, stirring now and then, until soft.
- Stir in 1 tsp ground cumin and 1/2 tsp dried thyme and cook for 1 minute.
- Add the carrots, then crumble in 1 stock cube and pour in 1 litre of boiling water. Bring to the boil, cover and simmer for 20–25 minutes until the carrots are very soft when pierced with a knife.
- While the soup simmers, warm the rolls in a 180°C oven for 5 minutes.
- Take the pan off the heat and blend the soup until smooth, either with a stick blender or carefully in batches in a blender.
- Stir in 250ml oat drink and reheat gently for 2 minutes without boiling. Season with salt and pepper and add a little more water if it is too thick.
- Serve in bowls with the warm pumpkin seed rolls.
