Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds carrots
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 large yellow onion
- 1 tablespoon fresh ginger
- 2 cloves garlic
- 4 cups vegetable broth
- 0.75 cups coconut milk
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon ground coriander
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley or cilantro
- 0.5 cups water
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Wash, peel, and chop the carrots into roughly 1-inch pieces. Toss them with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, 0.5 teaspoon of salt, and a pinch of pepper. Spread the carrots in a single layer on the baking sheet.
Roast the carrots in the oven for 30-35 minutes, flipping halfway through, until they are soft and lightly caramelized around the edges.
While the carrots are roasting, finely chop the onion, mince the garlic, and peel and grate the ginger.
In a large pot, heat the remaining tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté for 5-7 minutes until softened and translucent.
Stir in the grated ginger, minced garlic, cumin, and coriander. Cook for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Add the roasted carrots to the pot along with the vegetable broth and water. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and simmer for 10 minutes to let the flavors meld.
Using an immersion blender, purée the soup until smooth. Alternatively, carefully transfer the soup in batches to a blender, blending until smooth and returning it to the pot.
Stir in the coconut milk and adjust the seasoning with additional salt and pepper to taste.
Reheat the soup gently over low heat if needed, but do not let it boil.
Serve warm, garnished with fresh parsley or cilantro. Pair with crusty bread or a side salad for a complete meal.
