Impressive spiced carrot and lentil soup

In case you have a strong stick blender, then you do not even need to bother grating the carrots, just slice them. This is better, because that orange colour really sticks around.

No wonder this one has over 1150 positive ratings at the time of the writing, the most I have ever seen on BBC Good Food. It’s extremely easy to prepare, tastes terrific and also freezes well. Other lindy soups here.
