Chef notes

Whip up a batch of Martha Stewart's 5-ingredient spicy carrot soup.

Preparation

1.

Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium. Cook leek until just soft, stirring occasionally, 4 to 5 minutes. Stir in carrots and harissa, and season with salt. Cook until carrots are just soft, stirring occasionally, 8 to 10 minutes. Add chicken broth, and bring to a simmer. Cook until vegetables are tender, 10 to 12 minutes more.

2.

Puree half the soup in a blender until smooth (be careful not to fill the jar of the blender more than halfway). Stir into remaining soup. Serve immediately, topped with parsley.
