In a large saucepan of boiling water, cook carrots just until they're
tender. Drain and return carrots to saucepan. Set aside.
In a non-stick skillet, heat oil. Saute garlic & onion until softened,
approximately 5 minutes. Add to carrots, along with stock. Cover saucepan
and simmer 25 minutes.
Puree in food processor until smooth, in batches if necessary. Return
mixture to saucepan. Stir in milk, dill & chives.

Make this soup and refrigerate up to 1 day ahead of serving, and reheat
gently if serving warm.
Serving Ideas : Serve hot or cold, garnished with a dollop of yogurt.
NOTES : from Rose Reisman Brings Home Light Cooking, MacMillan, Toronto,
1993 ISBN 0-7715-9000-8 To save tears, instead of chopping onion, can use 4
tablespoons dried onions, rehydrated in boiling water and then drained.
This should work with Lacteeze or other lactose-reduced milk.
