To make this Pure And Simple Spiced Carrot Soup, you’ll need the following ingredients:
Ingredients:
– 1 lb of carrots, peeled and chopped
– 1 onion, diced
– 2 cloves of garlic, minced
– 1 tsp of ground cumin
– 1/2 tsp of ground coriander
– 1/2 tsp of ground ginger
– 1/4 tsp of ground cinnamon
– 4 cups of vegetable broth
– Salt and pepper to taste
– Olive oil
– Fresh cilantro for garnish (optional)
Instructions:
1. In a large pot, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and minced garlic, and sauté until softened and fragrant, about 5 minutes.
2. Add the chopped carrots to the pot, along with the ground cumin, coriander, ginger, and cinnamon. Stir well to coat the carrots in the spices and cook for another 2-3 minutes to help release their flavors.
3. Pour in the vegetable broth, ensuring that the carrots are fully submerged. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and let it simmer, covered, for about 20-25 minutes or until the carrots are tender.
4. Once the carrots are cooked through, use an immersion blender to puree the soup until smooth. If you don’t have an immersion blender, carefully transfer the soup in batches to a blender and blend until smooth before returning it to the pot.
5. Season the soup with salt and pepper to taste, adjusting the seasoning as needed. If the soup is too thick, you can add more broth or water to reach your desired consistency.
6. Ladle the Pure And Simple Spiced Carrot Soup into bowls and garnish with fresh cilantro for a pop of color and freshness.
