Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Carrots
- 400 grams Parsnips
- 1 medium Yellow onion
- 2 large Garlic cloves
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 liter Vegetable stock
- 200 milliliters Coconut milk
- 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon Ground coriander
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
Instructions
Peel and roughly chop the carrots and parsnips into equal-sized pieces.
Dice the onion and mince the garlic cloves.
In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
Add the diced onion and sauté for 5 minutes, or until soft and translucent.
Stir in the minced garlic, ground cumin, and ground coriander. Cook for 1 minute, until fragrant.
Add the chopped carrots and parsnips to the pot, stirring well to coat them in the spices.
Pour the vegetable stock into the pot. Bring to a boil, then lower the heat to a simmer and cover. Cook for 20-25 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender.
Remove the pot from the heat and use an immersion blender to puree the soup until smooth. Alternatively, blend in batches using a countertop blender.
Stir in the coconut milk, salt, black pepper, and lemon juice. Adjust seasoning to taste and reheat gently if needed.
Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
