Categories     appetizer

Time 25m

Yield Up to 6 (1 1/2 cup) servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil, 1 turn of the pan
2 tablespoons butter
1 medium onion, chopped
1 1/2 pounds packaged baby carrots, from produce section
6 cups chicken stock, available on soup aisle
1 tablespoon mild curry paste or 1 1/2 tablespoons curry powder
1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper
Coarse salt
1 cup sour cream
Plastic condiment bottle or medium plastic food storage bag
6 blades fresh chives, cut into 1-inch pieces

Steps:

  • Preheat medium pot over medium high heat. Add olive oil, butter, onions and carrots and saute 5 minutes. Add 4 cups chicken stock, curry and cayenne, and about 1 teaspoon salt to the pot. Bring to a boil, cover and cook until carrots are very tender, about 15 minutes. Place pot on a trivet next to food processor. Process soup in 2 or 3 small batches until soup is smooth and carrots are fully pureed. Transfer processed soup into a large bowl as you work to make room for more soup in the food processor. Return completed soup to the soup pot and place back over low heat. If the soup is too thick, add remaining stock, up to 2 cups, to achieve desired consistency. Adjust seasonings. Place sour cream in a plastic condiment squeeze bottle or into a medium food storage bag. Cut a very small hole in the corner of the bag with scissors. Ladle soup into bowls and squirt a swirl of sour cream around the bowl from the center out to the rim. Drag a toothpick from the center of the bowls out to the edges, forming a spider web design on soup. Pile a few pieces of cut chives at the center of each bowl to resemble green spiders in their webs! Cool!

CURRIED CARROT AND COCONUT SOUP



Curried Carrot and Coconut Soup image

There's a nice challenge in staring into a less than sufficiently stocked refrigerator. Last night we were down to not much more than carrots. Thus: them, an onion, grated ginger, a sort of curry mix. There was stock in the freezer, a can of coconut milk. A lime. Wish I'd had cilantro, but hey, it worked.

Categories     dinner, lunch, quick, weeknight

Time 30m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

3 tablespoons butter
1/2 medium onion, roughly chopped
3/4 pound carrots, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch coins
1 teaspoon peeled, grated fresh ginger
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin, to taste
1/2 teaspoon ground tumeric, to taste
1/2 teaspoon ground coriander, to taste
Pinch of cayenne pepper
2 cups chicken or vegetable stock
1 cup unsweetened coconut milk
Juice from ½ lime
Salt and freshly ground pepper
Cilantro, if you have it

Steps:

  • Heat the butter until the foam subsides. Add the diced chopped onions, sprinkle with salt, stir to coat with butter. Add the chopped carrots along with the spices. Stir and cook until softened, about 10 minutes.
  • Add the stock; there should be enough to cover the vegetables. Bring the pot to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat to medium and continue cooking until the carrots are cooked through, about 10 to 15 minutes.
  • If you have an immersion blender, purée the soup in the pot. If not, wait until the soup cools slightly, and purée in a food processor. Add enough coconut milk (and a little more stock or water if necessary) to bring the soup to the consistency you want. Adjust the seasoning (depending on the stock you use, you may need more or less salt), and lime juice to taste. Garnish and serve.

Provided by evelynathens

Categories     Vegetable

Time 50m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 large onion, chopped (1 cup)
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1 teaspoon minced peeled gingerroot
2 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon curry powder
1/8 teaspoon cinnamon
2 lbs carrots, peeled and chopped
3 1/2 cups chicken broth
1 bay leaf
1/8 teaspoon dried thyme, crumbled
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/2 cup light cream
1 tablespoon honey
plain yogurt or sour cream, as an accompaniment
chopped scallion

Steps:

  • In a large saucepan, cook the onion, garlic and ginger in butter over moderately-low heat, stirring, until onion is softened.
  • Stir in curry and cinnamon and cook, stirring, for 10 seconds.
  • Add carrots, stock, bay leaf, thyme, pepper and 1 ½ cups water, and boil.
  • Simmer mixture, covered, for 30 minutes.
  • Discard bay leaf and, in a blender, puree mixture in batches, transferring it to a large saucepan.
  • Whisk in cream, honey and salt to taste.
  • Ladle into bowls and top each serving with a dollop of yoghurt and a sprinkling of scallion.
  • Good hot or cold.

Tips:

  • Choose the right carrots: For the best flavor, use fresh, organic carrots. Avoid carrots that are limp or have blemishes.
  • Roast the carrots before cooking: Roasting the carrots before cooking them in the soup intensifies their flavor and gives them a slightly smoky taste.
  • Use a good quality curry powder: The curry powder is the key ingredient in this soup, so make sure to use a good quality one. Look for a curry powder that is fresh and has a vibrant color.
  • Add a little bit of heat: If you like your soup spicy, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or red pepper flakes. You can also add a jalapeño pepper for an extra kick.
  • Don't overcook the soup: The carrots should be tender but still have a little bit of bite to them. Overcooking the soup will make the carrots mushy.
  • Garnish the soup before serving: A dollop of yogurt, a sprinkle of fresh cilantro, or a drizzle of olive oil will add a nice touch to your soup.

Conclusion:

This creamy curried carrot soup is a delicious and easy-to-make soup that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It is also a great way to use up leftover carrots. The soup is flavorful and satisfying, and it is sure to become a family favorite.
