Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 large, diced yellow onion
- 3 minced garlic cloves
- 1 tablespoon, grated fresh ginger
- 2 teaspoons ground coriander
- 6 medium-sized, peeled and sliced carrots
- 4 cups vegetable broth
- 1 cup coconut milk
- 1 teaspoon (adjust to taste) salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.25 cup, chopped (for garnish) fresh cilantro leaves
Instructions
Heat a large pot over medium heat and add olive oil.
Once the oil is warm, add the diced onion and sauté for 3-4 minutes until softened.
Stir in the minced garlic, grated ginger, and ground coriander. Cook for 1-2 minutes or until fragrant.
Add the sliced carrots to the pot and stir to coat them in the spices and aromatics.
Pour in the vegetable broth and bring the mixture to a boil.
Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and let it simmer for 20-25 minutes or until the carrots are tender.
Remove the pot from the heat and use an immersion blender to puree the soup until smooth. Alternatively, carefully transfer the soup in batches to a blender and blend until smooth.
Return the blended soup to the pot and stir in the coconut milk. Heat gently over low heat.
Season the soup with salt and black pepper, adjusting to taste.
Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with freshly chopped cilantro. Serve warm.
