- In a large saucepan, heat 2 tablespoons oil over medium-high heat. Add onion, cinnamon, salt, nutmeg and pepper. Cook and stir 6-8 minutes or until onion is tender.

Fry carrot strips 2-3 minutes or until crispy, stirring occasionally. Drain on paper towels., Gently reheat soup; stir in cream. Divide soup among 4 bowls. Top with carrot strips and, if desired, chives.
