- 300 g carrots chopped
- 1 onion chopped
- 1 clove garlic sliced
- 800 ml vegetable stock
- 1 tsp dried mixed herbs
- seasoning according to taste

Notes
Sweet Potato and Carrots
The weights are approximate - you can use more or less of each vegetable. A rough weight of 700g will produce a thick soup in a 1.4L to 1.6L soup maker so you can thin it down at the end if needed.
Variations
- Roast the vegetables beforehand to bring out more flavour.
- Spice it up with 1 tsp cumin, chilli powder or chilli flakes.
- Stir in some creme fraiche at the end.
- Grate in some raw ginger at the beginning.
