Two of my favourite veg are teamed together in this soup recipe, and both are great for your skin.

Serves 6

Ingredients:

– 4 carrots, cut into quarters
– 4 sprigs of fresh thyme, leaves only
– Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
– Rapeseed oil, for roasting and frying

Method:

1. Preheat the oven to 200°C.
2. Place the carrots on a baking tray with two of the thyme sprigs.
