The most easy and straightforward recipe for soup. A great way to get your family to eat some vegetables! The carrots and caramelized onions give this soup a sweet taste, while a small amount of ginger balances that sweetness out by giving it a sharp, gingery flavor in the background. Simple, and perfect.
