1 bouillon cube
2 cloves garlic sliced or crushed
salt to taste

Heat the oil until it smokes. Add the carrots, curry powder, and ginger (if using). Saute until the carrots have begun to soften (~5 minutes). Add the water, bouillon cube and garlic. Cook until the carrots are soft (~20 minutes). Run soup through a Cuisinart or blender with the habanero. Salt to taste. Enjoy.
