Preparation

Step 1

Using the saute feature, heat the oil and add the onion. Sauté for 3 to 5 minutes to soften but not brown.

Add in the chopped carrot and pepper, sauteing for a couple of minutes.

Add in the broth and all the spices, stirring.

Lock the lid and set manual pressure for 12 minutes.

When time is up, do a quick release, unlock the lid, add the cilantro, and puree the soup in a blender, food processor, or try using your immersion blender.

Add back to pot and stir in the cream and stevia (if using).

Enjoy!
