Ingredients

  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 large yellow onion, diced
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 tbsp fresh ginger, peeled and grated
  • 2 lbs carrots, peeled and chopped
  • 4 cups vegetable broth (no-sugar, Paleo-friendly)
  • 1 can full-fat coconut milk (13.5 oz)
  • 2 tbsp fresh lime juice
  • 1/2 tsp kosher salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper, freshly ground
  • 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, roughly chopped

Instructions

  1. 1

    Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add 1 large diced yellow onion and cook, stirring, for 5 minutes until softened and translucent.

  2. 2

    Add 3 minced garlic cloves and 2 tbsp peeled and grated fresh ginger and cook for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

  3. 3

    Add 2 lbs peeled and chopped carrots and 4 cups vegetable broth (no-sugar, Paleo-friendly). Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 18-20 minutes until the carrots are completely tender when pierced with a fork.

  4. 4

    Remove from heat. Using an immersion blender directly in the pot (or carefully transfer in batches to a countertop blender), blend until completely smooth.

  5. 5

    Stir in 1 can full-fat coconut milk (13.5 oz) and 2 tbsp fresh lime juice. Season with 1/2 tsp kosher salt and 1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper. Warm gently over low heat if needed.

  6. 6

    Ladle into bowls and garnish with 1/4 cup roughly chopped fresh cilantro.
