This is not your run of the mill carrot soup, this here is my carrot soup with a twist!
Packed with flavours; the sweetness and tanginess of the orange, sharpness of the ginger and in the back the carrot that wraps all of it together with a hint of heat from fresh red chili. A wake up call for the senses!
