Preheat your oven to 425Β°F (220Β°C).
Place the poblano peppers on a baking sheet and roast for 20 minutes, turning once halfway through, until charred and blistered on all sides.
While the peppers are roasting, finely chop the onion and garlic cloves.
Once the peppers are roasted, remove them from the oven and place them in a bowl. Cover it with a lid or plastic wrap to let them steam and cool for 10 minutes.
Peel off the charred skin from the peppers, remove the seeds, and roughly chop the flesh.
Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the chopped onions and garlic and sautΓ© until the onion becomes translucent, about 5-7 minutes.
Add the roasted poblano peppers to the pot, along with the vegetable broth and ground cumin. Bring to a simmer and let it cook for 15 minutes.
Using an immersion blender, blend the soup until smooth. Alternatively, you can blend it in batches using a standard blender.
Return the soup to the pot (if using a standard blender) and add the coconut milk, salt, and pepper. Stir well and simmer for another 5 minutes to combine the flavors.
Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.
Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with fresh cilantro leaves and a squeeze of lime juice before serving.
