Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Caribbean Ginger Carrot Soup.
Step 1
To start your delicious soup, grab a large saucepan and melt some salted butter along with a splash of olive oil over medium heat.
Step 2
As the butter sizzles, toss in coarsely chopped onions and sauté them until they turn a lovely translucent shade, which should take about 5 to 6 minutes.
Step 3
Next, add in your carrot chunks and freshly chopped ginger, letting them cook for another 1 to 2 minutes until their delightful aromas fill your kitchen.
Step 4
Now it’s time to pour in low-sodium vegetable broth and sprinkle in a pinch of salt.
Step 5
Bring this vibrant mixture to a boil, and once it’s bubbling away, reduce the heat to low and cover the saucepan.
Step 6
Allow it to simmer gently for about 20 to 30 minutes, or until the carrots are incredibly tender.
Step 7
When the time is up, grab an immersion blender and puree the soup until it’s smooth and creamy.
Step 8
If you don’t have an immersion blender, no worries! Just let the soup cool slightly and blend it in batches using a regular blender.
Step 9
Once you’ve achieved that velvety texture, return the pureed soup to the heat.
Step 10
If it’s thicker than you’d like, feel free to stir in a bit more vegetable broth until it reaches your desired consistency.
Step 11
Season it up with ground white pepper and adjust the salt to your taste.
Step 12
Finally, ladle the warm soup into bowls and for a touch of luxury, swirl in 2 tablespoons of coconut milk into each serving.
Step 13
This will give your soup a rich, creamy finish that’s simply irresistible.
Step 14
Enjoy every spoonful of this comforting dish!.
