Instructions:
- Chop the onion.
- Mince the ginger root and garlic.
- Peel and chop the carrots.
- Chop coriander leaves.
- In a large pot, heat 1 tsp of coconut oil over medium heat.
- Add the chopped onion to the pot and sauté until it becomes translucent, about 4-5 minutes.
- Stir in the minced ginger and garlic. Sauté for another minute until fragrant.
- Add the chopped carrots to the pot. Pour in 3 cups of vegetable broth.
- Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer. Cover and cook until the carrots are tender, about 20 minutes.
- Once the carrots are tender, use an immersion blender to purée the soup until smooth. Alternatively, you can transfer the soup in batches to a regular blender and blend until smooth, then return it to the pot.
- Stir in the chopped coriander leaves and 1/4 tsp of red pepper.
- Pour in 1.5 cups of coconut milk and stir well.
- Add 2 tsp of lime juice to the soup. Stir to combine.
- Allow the soup to heat through for a few more minutes, but do not let it come to a boil after adding the coconut milk.
- Ladle the soup into bowls. Garnish with extra coriander leaves if desired. Serve hot.
Tips:
- Ensure the carrots are evenly chopped to facilitate uniform cooking.
- For a smoother texture, use an immersion blender or blend the soup in batches in a standard blender.
- Adjust the red pepper quantity according to your spice preference.
- Garnish with fresh coriander leaves and a drizzle of coconut milk for an added touch of elegance.
- Serve the soup with a slice of crusty bread or a side of steamed rice to make it a more substantial meal.
