Simple Carrot Soup

This soup is a sneaky one. Once tasted, people often express surprise at its composition. The secret is the length of time you saute the onions -- for the longer they cook, the sweeter the soup becomes. Pepper is another key ingredient.
Ingredients
- 4 tbsp butter or margarine shopping list
- 1 large onion, chopped shopping list
- 2 lb carrots, peeled and chopped shopping list
- 4 c water shopping list
- 2 cubes (vegetarian) chicken stock/boullion shopping list
- pepper to taste shopping list
- salt if desired shopping list
- water as necessary shopping list
How to make it
- Melt margarine in large pot, add onions.
- Cook onions on low for up to 25 minutes, covered. You're attempting translucency here so 5 minutes will work, but the superior taste is in the time.
- Add water, carrots and stock cubes. Boil until carrots are soft.
- Remove from heat and puree. Add water as necessary to obtain desired consistency.
- Add (salt) and pepper to taste.
- Experiment with plenty of pepper!
- Enjoy
