Ingredients

  • 2 lbs carrots, peeled, chopped
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 yellow onion, chopped
  • 4 garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 tbsp fresh ginger, peeled, grated
  • 3 cups vegetable broth
  • 1 can full-fat coconut milk (13.5 oz)
  • 1/2 tsp ground turmeric
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper, freshly ground
  • 2 tsp fresh lime juice

Instructions

  1. 1

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

    Add 4 minced garlic cloves and 2 tbsp peeled, grated fresh ginger and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.

    Stir in 1 can full-fat coconut milk (13.5 oz) and return the pot to low heat. Warm through for 3-4 minutes.

    Season with 1 tsp salt and 1/2 tsp freshly ground black pepper, then stir in 2 tsp fresh lime juice. Serve hot.

Questions

Can I make Carrot Ginger Soup ahead?

Yes, it takes well to being made ahead. Refrigerate it up to four days, or freeze it in portions for up to three months. Reheat gently on the stovetop with a splash of water or stock to loosen it.

Can I halve or double Carrot Ginger Soup?

Yes. As written it serves 4. Every ingredient in this entry carries precomputed half and double quantities, and the app's batch dial rewrites them inside each step. Doubled, blend in batches rather than overfilling the jar.
