Ingredients

• 4 medium carrots
• 1 large ripe mango
• 1 cup orange juice
• 2 cups vegetable stock
• 1 teaspoon fresh ginger
• 0.5 cup plain yogurt
• 1 tablespoon honey
• 1 tablespoon lime juice
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro leaves
• 1 teaspoon olive oil

Directions

Step 1

Peel and chop the carrots into small, even-sized pieces to ensure even cooking.

Step 2

In a medium-sized pot, add 2 cups of vegetable stock and the chopped carrots. Bring to a boil over medium heat, then reduce the heat and let it simmer for 15-20 minutes or until the carrots are soft.

Step 3

While the carrots are cooking, peel and pit the mango, then chop the flesh into small chunks. Set aside.

Step 4

Once the carrots are cooked, transfer them along with the cooking liquid to a blender. Add the chopped mango, orange juice, freshly grated ginger, plain yogurt, honey, lime juice, salt, and black pepper.

Step 5

Blend the mixture until smooth and creamy. Depending on your preferred consistency, you can add a bit more vegetable stock or water if it’s too thick.

Step 6

Taste the soup and adjust seasoning if needed. Let the soup cool to room temperature, then transfer it to the refrigerator to chill for at least 2 hours.

Step 7

Before serving, stir the soup well and spoon it into bowls. Drizzle each serving with a small amount of olive oil and garnish with fresh cilantro leaves.

Step 8

Serve chilled and enjoy this refreshing soup!
