How to Make This Soup

You’ll need a large saucepan or medium to large-sized soup pot to start. The first thing you want to do is saute the onions and garlic to bring out their flavour. You can use 2-3 tsp of olive oil, water or vegetable stock to cook them. After a few minutes, add the carrot and ginger and give it a good mix.

After the carrots, onion, garlic and ginger and smelling all wonderful and delicious, you can add the spices. I used cumin and coriander which work nicely with the coconut milk. For an alternative, you could do curry powder and turmeric or even a little pinch of cinnamon. You can add a pinch of salt and pepper too at this point, if you like.

After that cooks for another minute or two, add the coconut milk and vegetable broth, give it a good stir and let it simmer away until the carrots and tender.

Now it’s time to blend! You can use an immersion blender in the pot which will work just fine but the smoothest results, I’d recommend using a Vitamix or other high-speed blender. Carefully transfer the soup to a blender and blend until smooth. Just be sure to allow the steam to escape as you blend by cracking the lid.
