• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.

Step 2

Add the diced onion and sauté for 4-5 minutes until softened and translucent.

Step 3

Stir in the minced garlic and grated ginger, cooking for another 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

Step 4

Add the chopped carrots to the pot and stir to coat them in the aromatics.

Pour in the vegetable broth and bring the mixture to a boil.

Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and let the soup simmer for 20-25 minutes, or until the carrots are tender when pierced with a fork.

Step 7

Remove the pot from the heat and allow the soup to cool slightly.

Step 8

Using an immersion blender, puree the soup until smooth. Alternatively, carefully transfer the soup in batches to a blender and process until creamy.

Return the soup to the pot and stir in the coconut milk. Reheat the soup gently over low heat, if needed.

Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
