First fry the carrot pieces and onion rings in the oil a little, then season with salt and pepper. After a few minutes add the spices and then deglaze with the hot vegetable stock and simmer for about 15-20 minutes. Then puree, holding the hand blender straight and cover the rest of the pot with a tea towel so that the whole kitchen does not splatter.
Tip:
For better binding, you can add a dash of cream and then bring the soup to the boil again, or add a large potato from the start. Even if someone likes it spicy, it can also be seasoned with paprika powder.
One or two crispy slices of bread go well with this.
