La Soupe Tricolore!
- 1 cup pumpkin, canned, measured after draining (250 ml)
- 12 lb baby carrots, cooked until tender (250 g)
- 12 teaspoon sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt (use flaky sea salt if possible)
- 12 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 lb frozen spinach (500 g)
- 1 cup sour cream, see note in directions (325 ml)
- 12 teaspoon nutmeg
- 12 teaspoon salt
- 5 -7 artichoke hearts, drained well
- 4 ounces Laughing Cow cheese, 4 wedges
- salt
- 4 crescent rolls, made from crescent roll dough
- Make sure the cooked carrots, pumpkin, defrosted (cooked) spinach and artichoke hearts have been drained well.
- Put the carrots and pumpkin in a blender or processor, and add the sugar, salt, cinnamon and 1/2 cup sour cream.
- If you can find thick creme fraiche, it's better.
- If the colour is a bit pale, cheat and add a drop of yellow food coloring!
- Scrape out into a bowl and keep covered.
- Rinse your blender or processor bowl, then add the drained spinach, another 1/2 cup sour cream, the nutmeg and salt.
- Whizz, and scrape into a bowl & keep.
- (Again, you could add a drop of green food colouring).
- Process the artichoke hearts with the Laughing Cow cheese and a good pinch of salt.
- Heat the three ingredients in a warming oven (about 100 deg F, 80 deg C) until warm to hot, and also heat 4 small, shallow soup plates or other suitable containers.
- Use a double fold of foil, about the width of a school ruler, and put in the centre of a soup plate.
- Carefully (if you use both hands it works well!)
- pour in small amounts of the yellow soup mixture and the green spinach mixture, to just cover the bottom of the soup bowl.
- Remove the foil.
- You should have two colours of soup.
- Drizzle the artichoke mixture (or drop in small dots with a spoon) down that centre line.
- Complete your 4 plates, and serve each with a crescent roll if you like.
