Carrot soup

With 2-3 kg carrots laying around, carrot soup seems like the natural thing to make, so i did =p

This time i was too lazy to look around for a recipe, but later while it was boiling i saw that veganmisjonen also had shared a (norwegian) recipe that is more or less the same as mine (i didnt read well through it, i just read its with carrot, onion, and some other ingredients hehehe reading through it now, i see we have like 8 ingredients in common, this is also where i got the idea of adding tumeric and ginger)

Well, here is my recipe:

Ingredients:
0,5 onion, chopped
1 garlic clove, chopped
About 4 carrots, chopped
0,5 - 1 celery stalk, chopped
1 handful chopped leek
1 potato, chopped (i had a spare boiled potato in the fridge, so i added mine along with the water)
0,25 - 0,5 papika/bell pepper (i used yellow one =D)
Vegetable oil
Stock cube
Water
Salt and pepper
Tumeric and ginger powder (optional, i think maybe it's better without, depending on your taste xD)

First heat oil and stir onion, garlic, carrots, celery, potato, and bell pepper until it's nice and shiny xD Then add water until it's covered, leek and stock cube and let it simmer until it's tender. Let it cool down a bit, then blend it together in a blender or food processor. Put it back in the pan and add more water if needed (i needed a lot more water haha), and tumeric and ginger powder if you want that stuff in, and taste with salt and pepper, and let it heat up again before you serve/eat.
