Instructions:
- Peel and dice the potatoes.
- Finely chop the red hot chili pepper.
- Mince the garlic cloves.
- Finely chop the onion.
- In a large pot, heat 1/2 tsp of coconut oil over medium heat until melted.
- Add the chopped onions to the pot and sauté until they are translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
- Add the minced garlic and chopped red hot chili pepper. Sauté for another 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
- Sprinkle the ground cumin, fennel seeds, turmeric powder, red pepper, and 1 tsp of coriander leaves into the pot. Stir to combine and cook for an additional 1 minute to toast the spices.
- Add the diced potatoes to the pot and stir to coat them with the spices.
- Pour in the vegetable broth and season with the salt.
- Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for 15-20 minutes or until the potatoes are tender.
- Once the potatoes are tender, add the cooked and drained chickpeas to the soup. Stir to combine and heat through for about 5 minutes.
- Stir in the lime juice and adjust seasoning if necessary (salt, lime juice, or spices).
- Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with additional coriander leaves.
- Serve hot and enjoy your delicious vegan samosa soup with potatoes, chickpeas, and spices!
Tips:
- Cut the potatoes into small, even pieces to ensure they cook evenly and quickly.
- If you prefer a spicier soup, you can add more red hot chili pepper or increase the amount of red pepper spice.
- For a creamier texture, you can partially blend the soup using an immersion blender or by removing some of the soup, blending it, and then mixing it back in.
- Using fresh lime juice will give a brighter flavor than bottled lime juice.
- If you prefer a thicker soup, reduce the amount of vegetable broth slightly.
- Feel free to add other vegetables like carrots or peas to make the soup even more nutritious and colorful.
Serve this vegan samosa soup hot, garnished with some fresh coriander leaves and a squeeze of lime juice for an extra burst of flavor. Not only is it a wholesome meal on its own, but it's also perfect for serving with some crusty bread or vegan naan on the side. Enjoy a bowl of this soup to warm up and delight in the comforting flavors.
