Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 medium yellow onion, chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon fresh ginger, minced
- 2 teaspoons ground curry powder
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon ground coriander
- 2 pounds carrots, peeled and sliced
- 4 cups low-sodium vegetable broth
- 1 cup coconut milk
- 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.
Add the chopped onion and sauté for 5-7 minutes, or until softened and translucent.
Stir in the garlic, ginger, curry powder, cumin, and coriander. Cook for 1 minute, stirring frequently, until fragrant.
Add the sliced carrots and stir to coat with the spice mixture.
Pour in the vegetable broth and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 25 minutes, or until the carrots are very tender.
Remove the pot from heat. Using an immersion blender, puree the soup until completely smooth. Alternatively, transfer the soup in batches to a blender, but be careful with the hot liquid.
Return the soup to the pot (if using a blender) and stir in the coconut milk and honey or maple syrup.
Season the bisque with salt and black pepper, adjusting to taste. Reheat gently if needed, but do not let it boil.
Serve the bisque hot, garnished with chopped fresh cilantro.
