Ingredients
  

1 lb (450g) carrots, peeled and chopped

1 medium onion, diced

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated

2 tablespoons olive oil

4 cups vegetable broth

1 cup coconut milk (or heavy cream for a richer taste)

1 teaspoon ground cumin

1 teaspoon ground coriander

Salt and pepper to taste

Fresh cilantro or parsley, for garnish

Instructions
 

Sauté the Aromatics: In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté for about 5 minutes until it becomes translucent. Add the minced garlic and grated ginger, cooking for an additional 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

    Cook the Carrots: Stir in the chopped carrots, ground cumin, and ground coriander. Cook for another 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.

      Add the Broth: Pour in the vegetable broth and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and let it simmer for about 20 minutes, or until the carrots are tender.

        Blend Until Smooth: Using an immersion blender, carefully purée the soup until it's smooth and creamy. If you don’t have an immersion blender, transfer the soup in batches to a countertop blender, then return it to the pot.

          Incorporate Coconut Milk: Stir in the coconut milk (or heavy cream) until well combined. Allow the soup to heat through, but do not let it boil. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

            Serve: Ladle the soup into bowls, garnishing with fresh cilantro or parsley. Enjoy your warmth in each comforting spoonful!
