Ingredients

• 1.5 pounds carrots (peeled and chopped)
• 2 tablespoons coconut oil
• 1 large yellow onion (diced)
• 3 cloves garlic cloves (minced)
• 1 tablespoon ginger (peeled and grated)
• 2 tablespoons red curry paste
• 4 cups vegetable broth
• 1 cup canned coconut milk (full fat)
• 2 tablespoons lime juice (freshly squeezed)
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon pepper
• 0.25 cup fresh cilantro (chopped, for garnish)
• 0.25 cup crushed peanuts (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Heat a large pot over medium heat and add the coconut oil.

Step 2

Once the oil has melted, add the diced onion and sauté for 5 minutes until softened.

Step 3

Add the minced garlic and grated ginger, cooking for an additional 2 minutes until fragrant.

Step 4

Stir in the red curry paste and cook for 1 minute to allow the flavors to bloom.

Step 5

Add the chopped carrots and vegetable broth to the pot. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer. Cover and cook for 20 minutes, or until the carrots are tender.

Step 6

Remove the pot from the heat. Use an immersion blender to puree the soup until smooth. Alternatively, carefully transfer the soup to a blender and blend in batches.

Step 7

Return the pureed soup to the pot and stir in the coconut milk, lime juice, salt, and pepper. Cook over low heat for 5 minutes to heat through and allow the flavors to meld.

Step 8

Taste and adjust the seasoning as needed.

Step 9

Serve the soup hot, garnished with fresh cilantro and, if desired, crushed peanuts for added texture.
