Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Grate the carrots and chop the onions and lettuce together. Add the sweet herbs. Put all ingredients into a stewpan with enough good broth to moisten everything. Add the remainder of the broth gradually as the soup cooks. When nearly done, add the crumb of a French roll. When the bread is soaked and softened, strain the entire soup through a sieve. Serve hot in a tureen.
