Carrot Ginger Soup

     Carrot soup is the one which i make often in the winter. I love the flavour of ginger in this soup. It is the simplest soup recipe using carrot that we always have at our home. It is a very good appetizer but you can have it anytime a day. Today, i am going to have carrot soup as a appetizer.

     Since carrot is sweet, adjust the quantity of ginger and pepper powder according to your taste buds

* Instead of cooking carrot in pan you can pressure cook it for two whistles. It saves lot of time when you are in hurry.
