Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Edamame (shelled, frozen)
- 4 cups Vegetable broth
- 1 cup Coconut milk
- 1 medium Onion (chopped)
- 3 cloves Garlic (minced)
- 1 tablespoon Ginger (grated)
- 2 tablespoons Lime juice
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro (chopped, for garnish)
- 1 teaspoon Sesame seeds (for garnish)
Instructions
Start by preparing the ingredients. Chop the onion, mince the garlic, and grate the ginger.
Heat olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté for 4-5 minutes until softened.
Stir in the garlic and ginger, cooking for another minute until fragrant.
Add the frozen edamame and vegetable broth to the saucepan. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium-low and let it simmer for 10 minutes.
Carefully transfer the soup to a blender (in batches if necessary) and blend until smooth. Alternatively, use an immersion blender directly in the saucepan to puree the soup.
Return the blended soup to the saucepan. Stir in the coconut milk, lime juice, salt, and black pepper. Cook for an additional 5 minutes over low heat, stirring occasionally.
Taste and adjust the seasoning with more salt or lime juice if needed.
Ladle the soup into bowls, and garnish with chopped fresh cilantro and a sprinkle of sesame seeds.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Edamame Soup with a Twist!
