Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Peel and chop the onions.
- Peel and grate the ginger root.
- Peel and slice the carrots.
- Peel and dice the sweet potato.
- In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
- Add the chopped onions and sauté until they are soft and translucent, about 5-7 minutes.
- Add the grated ginger and sauté for an additional 2 minutes, stirring frequently.
- Add the sliced carrots and diced sweet potato to the pot. Stir well to combine with the onion and ginger mixture.
- Pour in the vegetable broth, ensuring the vegetables are fully submerged.
- Add a dash of salt and black pepper to taste.
- Stir well to combine all ingredients.
- Bring the mixture to a boil over high heat.
- Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and cover the pot. Let it simmer for about 20-25 minutes, or until the carrots and sweet potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork.
- Use an immersion blender to puree the soup directly in the pot until smooth. Alternatively, carefully transfer the soup in batches to a blender and puree until smooth. If using a blender, return the pureed soup to the pot.
- Taste the soup and adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed.
- Ladle the soup into bowls and enjoy it while hot. Optionally, garnish with a sprinkle of fresh herbs or a dollop of yogurt for added flavor and texture.
Tips:
- Chop the vegetables uniformly to ensure even cooking.
- Peel the ginger and sweet potato for a smoother texture.
- If you prefer a spicier soup, add more ginger according to your taste.
- Use a hand blender or standard blender to achieve a creamy consistency.
- Garnish with fresh herbs like parsley or cilantro for an extra burst of flavor.
