Equipment

• Large baking sheet

• Knife and cutting board

• Blender

• Spatula

• Kettle or small pot for heating water

Ingredients

Carrots	4 units
Celery (without the leaves)	1 stalk
Onions	2 units
Garlic cloves	4 units
Cumin	½ teaspoon
Turmeric	½ teaspoon
Olive oil	3 tablespoons
Cold butter	2 tablespoons
Hot Water	3 cups
Salt and pepper	To taste
Optional toppings* Plain unsweetened yogurt Toasted sunflower seeds

Process

1. Preheat the oven to 220°C (430°F).
   

2. Prepare the vegetables: peel the carrots and slice them diagonally; cut the onions into wedges; chop the celery; keep the garlic cloves whole.
   

3. Spread everything on a large baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and season with cumin, turmeric, salt, and pepper.
   

4. Toss with your hands so everything is well coated, and spread the vegetables out so they can brown more easily.
   

5. Roast for about 40 minutes, turning the vegetables halfway through. Meanwhile, heat the water.
   

6. Transfer the roasted vegetables to a blender, add the hot water, and blend until smooth.
   

7. Add the cold butter and blend a little more — it gives shine and makes the soup velvety. Adjust the consistency with a bit more water if needed.
   

8. Serve warm with yogurt and toasted seeds.

Notes

• Play with flavors

Ginger, nutmeg, lemon zest, or even a bit of curry can transform the soup completely.

• Foods that improve digestion

Turmeric and cumin do more than add flavor — they help warm the body and support digestion.

• Enhance the nutritious flavor

A handful of seeds (chia, sunflower, pumpkin) boosts nutrition without taking away its lightness.

• Extra tip

Roasting the vegetables before blending is the secret to that deep, naturally sweet flavor.

TREAT yourself
