Carrot & Apple Soup with Marjoran

Directions

Soften the onions in sunflower oil in a heavy, covered pan.

Add the butter and the carrots and continue softening for 10 to 15 minutes (the onions does not brown !); then add the apples.

Soften for another 5 to 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the apples have begun to desintegrate.

Cover with the water, bring to a boil and simmer for 20 to 30 minutes.

Allow to cool slightly, then liquidize, adding the salt, black pepper and marjoram before you do so.
