1. 1Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large heavy-bottomed pot over medium heat, which is 350°F (175°C). Add the 1 medium onion, cut into 1/2-inch pieces, and 1 medium carrot, cut into 1/2-inch pieces. Sauté for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the vegetables are softened and the onion is translucent.

4. 4Add the 2 tablespoons of tomato paste and stir until it is well combined with the vegetables. Cook for another minute, stirring constantly.
5. 5Pour in the 6 cups of vegetable broth. Bring the soup to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and simmer for 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. The soup should be gently bubbling.
