Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon oil
- 1 onion, minced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoon (20 g) ginger, minced, see notes
- 1.1 lb (500 g) carrots , roughly chopped
- 2 cups (720 ml) vegetable broth
- ¼ cup (60 ml) coconut milk, optional
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice, or lime juice
- 1 teaspoon maple syrup, optional
- salt & pepper to taste
Instructions
- Heat a large pot with oil. Add onion, garlic, and ginger and sauté for 5 minutes. Add carrots and sauté for another 3 minutes while stirring occasionally.
- Pour in the vegetable broth, pop on the lid, and let it simmer for 15 minutes.
- Blend the soup until smooth using a blender or immersion blender. Optional: Add ¼ cup coconut milk, dairy-free cream, or this cashew cream for a creamier soup. Add more water if you like your soup thinner.
- Season to taste with lemon juice, maple syrup, salt, and black pepper. → Decorate the soup with a few splashes of coconut milk and toasted sunflower seeds.
Notes
- Ginger: This soup is very gingery, which is healthy and helps to reduce inflammation if you have a cold. Reduce the amount to only 1 tablespoon for a less intense ginger flavor.
- Make-Ahead: Keeps fresh for 3 days. Store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
- Freeze: Can be frozen for up to 3 months. Thaw it directly in a pot over medium heat.
