Equipment

  • Blender
  • Lidded pot
  • Spoon
  • Colander
  • Jug

Ingredients
  

  • 100 g carrots
  • 25 g unsalted butter
  • pinch of salt

Instructions
 

  • Wash and peel the carrots and chop into thin rounds. Pop the carrots into your pot and add cold water to about 1 inch above the level of the carrots. Add the butter, cover and turn the heat to high and leave to boil for about 20 minutes.
  • After 20 minutes check your carrots, if soft and liquid is now below the level of the carrots take off the heat and drain using a colander and the jug to collect the liquid. If not leave for another 5 minutes to reduce the liquid further with the lid off.
  • Add the carrots to the blender with half of the liquid from the carrots and blend. If your puree is not liquid enough add the remaining liquid and pulse a few times. Serve with your desired main and enjoy!
