Number Of Ingredients 6

1/4 cup unsalted butter
1/2 lb carrot, sliced 1/2-inch thick
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon granulated sugar
2 cups hot water
2 ounces cheddar cheese, shredded

Steps:

  • In a 2-quart saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat, then add the carrots & cook, stirring, until they are covered with the butter.
  • Add salt, sugar & hot water, then bring to a boil, cover, reduce heat to low, & cook until soft, about 20 minutes.
  • Drain, reserving the cooking liquid, then transfer the carrots to a blender & process until smooth, adding a little of the cooking liquid.
  • Return to the saucepan with the remaining liquid & bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low & stir in the cheese, while simmering until the cheese melts ~ The texture should be like that of heavy cream.
