Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 pound carrots, about 8 carrots, chopped
- 1 medium sweet potato, peeled and diced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon fresh ginger, minced (about 1-inch knob)
- ½ onion, diced
- 1 cup full-fat coconut milk
- 4 cups vegetable broth
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 2 teaspoons maple syrup, optional
Instructions
- Heat the Dutch Oven or a large pot over medium heat and add olive oil, sweet potato, and carrots. Sauté for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Next, add garlic, grated ginger, and onion and continue sautéing for 2-3 minutes.
- Add coconut milk, vegetable broth, salt, and maple syrup (if adding) and stir to combine. Cover, bring to a boil, and then turn down heat and let simmer for 10-15 minutes, or until carrots and sweet potato are soft when pierced with a fork.
- Use an immersion blender to blend the soup until smooth. Or, if you don’t have an immersion blender, allow soup to cool and then carefully transfer it to a high-powered blender or food processor and blend until smooth.
Notes
Fridge: Store leftover carrot soup in an airtight container for 4-5 days.
Freezer: Let the soup cool completely, then transfer it to a freezer-safe container. You can freeze it in individual portions in these Souper Cube trays, so you can thaw and reheat as much as you need at a time. The soup lasts up to 3 months in the freezer.
Reheating: You can reheat the soup on the stove or in the microwave. If you froze the soup in one container, allow the soup to thaw overnight in the fridge before reheating. If you froze it in individual portions, you can reheat each soup portion straight from the freezer.
