Categories     one pot, soups and stews, appetizer, main course, side dish

Time 1h

Yield Serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1 large onion, chopped
2 pounds sweet carrots, peeled and thinly sliced
Salt to taste
1/4 teaspoon sugar
2 quarts water, chicken stock, or vegetable stock
6 tablespoons rice, preferably Arborio
Freshly ground pepper to taste
2 tablespoons chopped fresh herbs, such as chervil, mint, chives, or parsley, for garnish
1 cup toasted croutons for garnish (optional)

Steps:

  • Heat the butter and olive oil in a large, heavy soup pot over medium-low heat and add the onion. Cook, stirring, until tender, about 5 minutes. Add the carrots and 1/2 teaspoon salt, cover partially and cook for another 10 minutes, stirring often, until the vegetables are tender and fragrant. Add the rice, water or stock, salt (about 1 1/2 teaspoons), and sugar. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat, cover and simmer 30 minutes, or until the carrots are tender and the soup is fragrant.
  • Blend the soup either with a hand blender, in batches in a blender (cover the top with a towel and hold it down to avoid hot splashes), or through a food mill fitted with the fine blade. The rice should no longer be recognizable (it thickens the soup). Return to the pot. Stir and taste. Adjust salt, add a generous amount of freshly ground pepper, and heat through. If the sweetness of the carrots needs a boost, add another pinch of sugar.
  • Serve, garnishing each bowl with croutons and a sprinkle of herbs.

CARROTS A LA CREME



Carrots a La Creme image

Cook carrots in cream long enough and they caramelized into this surprising and wonderfullly easy side dish. It's rich, so serve small portions. The dish originated in Normandy and is ideal with roast meats

Provided by fluffernutter

Categories     Vegetable

Time 55m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

3 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 1/2 lbs carrots, peeled, grated
salt & freshly ground black pepper
1 pinch of freshly grated nutmeg
3/4 cup creme fraiche or 3/4 cup heavy whipping cream

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 (or if you're roasting or baking something else, cook the carrots at that temperature). In a large skillet, melt the butter and add the carrots and a little salt. Cook, stirring, for about 5 minutes until they lose their raw look. Stir in pepper to tase, nutmeg and cream fraiche. Cook until the mixture boils.
  • Spoon the carrot mixture into a small, shallow casserole or baking dish. Cover with a lid and bake until the cream is absored and the carrots brown around the edges, about 40 minutes. No harm if the carrots cook longer -- they simply continue to caramelize. But don't undercook, or the dish will taste very ordinary.
