Carrot Velouté

Prep time: 10 mins
Cooking time: 20 mins

Ingredients:
1kg of Carrots, peeled and sliced
1 large Onion, cut in quarters
2 medium Potatoes, peeled and cut in quarters
1 cube of Chicken Stock
Heavy cream
Nutmeg

Preparation:
Boil vegetables in 2 litres of water.  Add Chicken stock.  Once the vegetables are soft, purée with a hand blender.  Serve in bowls, add a dollop of cream to each bowl and add a pinch of nutmeg.  Serve hot.

You can store in fridge or freeze this soup as long as you have not added the cream.  I only add the cream moments before serving and use the cream to draw hearts and stars in each bowl, (and sprinkled with nutmeg) for my girls.
