Creamy carrot ginger soup with sweet potato chips

Ingredients

200 ml Creme Cuisine

2 tbsp vegetable oil

1 large shallot

600 g carrots

5 cm piece of fresh ginger

5 dl vegetable stock

salt, black pepper, nutmeg grated

handful of parsley

1 small sweet potato

dried rosemary, dried garlic

Directions

Heat oil and add finely chopped shallot. Sauté for 5 minutes.

Peel and slice the carrots and add to the shallot. Peel the ginger, chop it finely, add to the carrots, sauté for a while, and add the broth. Simmer until carrots are tender.

Finally add Creme Cuisine and bring to a boil. Season with salt and pepper.

Blend the soup until smooth. If you feel the soup is too thick, add more broth and heat rapidly.

To make the sweet potato chips, wash the potato and cut into thin very slices using a mandoline. Put the slices into a bowl filled with water and let them soak for about 20 min.

Meanwhile, heat oven to 220°C and line a baking pan with baking sheet.

Take the sweet potato slices out of the water and pat excess moisture with a paper towel. Put the slices into a clean bowl and drizzle with olive oil. Add dried rosemary, dried garlic, salt and pepper as desired, toss until coated.

Arrange the slices on the baking pan so that they do not overlap and bake for about 15 min. Allow the slices to cool.

Before serving, decorate the soup with the sweet potato chips and fresh parsley.
