Ingredients

  • 4 medium carrots, chopped
  • 2 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and diced
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, minced
  • 4 cups vegetable broth
  • 1 can (13.5 oz) coconut milk
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt, adjust to taste
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • Fresh herbs for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prep the Ingredients: Chop the carrots and sweet potatoes, dice the onion, and mince the garlic and ginger.
  2. Sauté Aromatics: In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the onion, garlic, and ginger, and sauté until fragrant and translucent (about 3-4 minutes).
  3. Add Vegetables: Stir in the chopped carrots and sweet potatoes. Cook for an additional 5 minutes.
  4. Add Broth: Pour in the vegetable broth and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to a simmer and cook for 20 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender.
  5. Blend the Soup: Use an immersion blender to puree the soup until smooth and creamy. If you prefer a chunkier texture, blend only half of the soup and mix it back in.
  6. Add Coconut Milk: Stir in the coconut milk and heat over low heat without boiling. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper.
  7. Serve: Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with fresh herbs if desired. Enjoy hot.
