Best 5 Coconut Ginger Carrots Recipes

COCONUT GINGER CARROT SOUP

Steps:

• If you're using oil, heat it in a large soup pot over medium heat then add the onion and garlic with a pinch of salt and pepper and cook for 3-4 minutes until fragrant and soft. For oil-free soup, use water or broth instead of oil.
• Add the ginger, carrot and spices, along with another pinch of salt and pepper, and cook for another minute, stirring constantly. If the pan starts to dry out, you can add a splash of water or broth.
• Add the coconut milk and vegetable broth and let it simmer lightly, uncovered for about 20 minutes or until the carrots are fork tender and cooked through. Remove the soup from heat.
• Use an immersion blender in the pot or carefully transfer the soup to a blender and blend until smooth and creamy. Pour it back into the pot.
• Taste the soup and adjust the seasoning if needed. Serve right away with finely chopped cilantro, a drizzle of coconut milk and a squeeze of fresh lime juice.

COCONUT-GINGER CARROTS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375. Spray a baking pan with cooking spray and set aside.
• Place a large skillet over medium heat. After a minute or so, add a tablespoon of olive oil and swirl to coat the pan.
• Add the onion and ginger and saute for five minutes.
• Stir in the garlic and 1/4 teaspoons salt, and saute for another five minutes.
• Add the carrots and remaining 1/4 teaspoons salt, and stir until the carrots are coated with the onion mixture. Turn the heat down to medium-low and, cover the pan, and cook without stirring for another five minutes. (Katzen says five; I'd say ten, at least, unless you like really crunchy carrots.).
• Add the lemon or lime juice and the crystallized ginger. Cover and cook without stirring for another five minutes.
• Transfer carrot mixture to the prepared baking dish, cover tightly with foil, and bake for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the carrots are fork tender. (I cooked for 20 and ended up with very crunchy carrots -- I think next time I'll go for 30 minutes.).
• Remove the dish from the oven, uncover, and sprinkle with the coconut. Return to the oven and cook, uncovered for another ten to fifteen minutes.

CREAMY CHIA COCONUT GINGER-CARROT SOUP

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.
