Cream of Carrot and Sun-Dried Tomato Soup

in

The cream of carrot and sun-dried tomato soup in a pressure cooker, is ready to serve with just 6 minutes of cooking.

Very flavorful thanks to the sun-dried tomatoes, I’ve started making this soup since the Thermomix entered my kitchen, and I haven’t stopped since.

I’ve often prepared and cooked it with the Thermomix, but other times I’ve cooked it with my beloved pressure cooker, which cooks both vegetables in just 6 minutes.

You can use vegetable broth, water and bouillon cube, or a good meat broth, and in all cases, the result does not disappoint!

In these early autumn days, which actually already seem like winter due to the drop in temperatures, enjoying a warm cream soup is just what you need.

I’ll provide both cooking versions of the cream of carrot and sun-dried tomato soup, and then you can choose.
