Ingredients

  • 4 large carrots sliced
  • 1 ½ cup of vegetable stock see recipe for link
  • ½ cup of coconut milk
  • 2 teaspoon ginger chopped (about 1 inch )
  • 1 small onion chopped
  • 2 garlic cloves chopped
  • teaspoon of cayenne pepper
  • 1 teaspoon of curry powder
  • ½ teaspoon of black pepper
  • ½ teaspoon of pink salt
  • 2 tbsp. of olive oil or coconut oil

Instructions

  • Begin by sautéing the garlic and onions in the coconut oil on medium heat until slightly golden brown in colour.
  • Next, add the ginger and carrot slices to the same pan with the garlic and onions and cook for a further 1-2 minutes.
  • Pour the vegetable stock into a large saucepan on low-medium heat and add the coconut milk, cayenne pepper, curry powder, pink salt and black pepper.
  • Reduce the heat to low and allow to simmer for 5 minutes, until the carrots are tender.
  • Carefully transfer the contents to a blender and liquidise - The soup should still be hot and will retain its heat if using a vitamix for 1-2 minutes. Alternatively, you can pour the liquid into a pot to re-heat or serve later and re-heat at a more convenient time.

Notes

  • This soup yields roughly 2-3 servings but if you want a larger batch simply double or triple accordingly
  • I used about 1 inch of ginger in total which is about 2 teaspoons. If you want a more pungent taste in ginger use more 
  • Both fresh and frozen carrots can be used to make the recipe.
  • Use fat free/low fat coconut milk or another plant based milk if you want to reduce calories even further.
  • This soup is suitable to consume on a low carb lifestyle.
  • If you don't have cayenne to hand use chilli powder or flakes.
  • The soup isn't overly spicy or hot, just mild in heat, if you don't care for any heat then leave it out
