Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 onion chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 inch piece of ginger peeled and grated
  • 1 teaspoon ground turmeric
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon ground coriander
  • 1 large carrot chopped
  • 1 large sweet potato peeled and chopped
  • 4 cups vegetable broth
  • 1 can coconut milk
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 unit lime juiced
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes.

  • Add chopped carrot and sweet potato to the pot. Stir to coat with the spices.
  • Pour in vegetable broth and bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce heat to a simmer, cover the pot, and cook for 20-25 minutes, or until vegetables are tender.
  • Using an immersion blender, puree the soup until smooth. Alternatively, carefully transfer the soup in batches to a blender.
  • Stir in coconut milk and soy sauce. Bring the soup back to a simmer and cook for an additional 5 minutes.
  • Add lime juice and season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with fresh cilantro and chili flakes if desired. Serve immediately.

Notes

For a spicier kick, add more chili flakes or a diced jalapeño pepper during the sautéing step. This soup pairs well with crusty bread or a side salad.
