Indulge in a culinary journey with our tantalizing Carrot Ginger Coconut Soup, a symphony of flavors that will warm your soul. This creamy and aromatic soup is a harmonious blend of sweet carrots, zesty ginger, and rich coconut milk, creating a delightful balance of flavors. With just a few simple steps, you'll be able to savor this comforting dish, perfect for a cozy meal or an impressive dinner party.

Our culinary adventure begins with a medley of fresh carrots, lovingly peeled and chopped, ready to release their natural sweetness. Ginger, with its vibrant pungency, is grated, unleashing its aromatic essence. Garlic and onion, the quintessential flavor builders, are sautéed until fragrant, creating a savory base for our soup.

Next, we introduce a symphony of spices, each contributing its unique character. Ground cumin, with its earthy warmth, and coriander, with its citrusy notes, dance together in perfect harmony. A touch of red pepper flakes adds a subtle hint of heat, while turmeric lends its golden hue and anti-inflammatory properties.

Coconut milk, the star of this soup, is gently stirred in, its creamy texture and rich flavor enveloping all the ingredients in a velvety embrace. Vegetable broth, a flavorful foundation, is added to create a luscious and satisfying broth. As the soup simmers, the flavors deepen and meld, infusing every spoonful with a symphony of taste.

For an extra touch of texture and visual appeal, we offer two delightful variations. The first features crispy coconut bacon, a savory and smoky treat that adds a delightful crunch to each bite. If you prefer a vegan option, toasted coconut flakes provide a similarly satisfying textural contrast.

Finally, a sprinkle of fresh cilantro and a drizzle of coconut cream add the perfect finishing touches. With its vibrant green color and refreshing flavor, cilantro brings a burst of freshness to the soup. Coconut cream adds a final touch of richness and creaminess, creating an unforgettable culinary experience.

So, gather your ingredients, embark on this culinary journey, and indulge in the comforting embrace of Carrot Ginger Coconut Soup. Let your taste buds delight in the harmonious blend of flavors as you savor every spoonful of this culinary masterpiece.

Yield serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 (13.5-ounce) can coconut milk
1 medium yellow onion, chopped
3/4 teaspoon sea salt
2 teaspoons peeled, grated fresh ginger
2 teaspoons Thai yellow or red curry paste
1 clove garlic, peeled and chopped
12 ounces baby carrots, quartered lengthwise
2 3/4 cups low-sodium vegetable broth, plus more as needed
2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice (from about 1 lime)
15 large cilantro sprigs plus 5 small cilantro sprigs
1/4 cup plus 1 teaspoon black or white chia seeds

Steps:

  • Heat 1/3 cup of the coconut milk in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the onion and salt and cook while stirring until onion is softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in the ginger, curry paste, and garlic and cook while stirring until well combined and fragrant, about 1 minute.
  • Add the carrots, 2 3/4 cups of broth, the lime juice, the 15 large cilantro sprigs, and the remaining coconut milk and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to low and simmer, covered, until the carrots are very tender, about 30 minutes. Remove the cilantro sprigs and puree soup in batches in a blender, using the hot fill line as a guide.
  • Transfer the pureed soup to a clean saucepan and place over low heat. Stir in 1/4 cup of the chia seeds and simmer uncovered until chia seeds are fully hydrated and soup reaches desired consistency, about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. (Note: If soup becomes thicker than you desire, stir in additional vegetable broth by the tablespoon to reach ideal consistency.) Taste and adjust seasonings, garnish with the remaining 1 teaspoon of chia seeds and small cilantro sprigs, and serve.

CARROT GINGER COCONUT SOUP

Creamy and rich, this soup can be made vegan with vegetable stock/water or with chicken broth. Perfect for entertaining or a casual family gathering, both versions are quite delicious and great to serve if you have different types of eaters in your family. This soup was inspired by a soup I had in Yosemite at Tenaya Lodge on Mother's Day, and it was so tasty that I came home and immediately designed a recipe that captured the creamy rich and light soup I had at that wonderful restaurant. Using baby carrots helps tp keep the soup sweet and avoid any bitter undertones.

1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper
3 cups low-sodium chicken broth
3 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
