Ingredients
  

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 medium onion, chopped

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated

1 pound carrots, peeled and chopped

4 cups vegetable broth

1 teaspoon ground coriander

½ teaspoon cumin

Salt and pepper to taste

½ cup coconut milk (or heavy cream for a richer taste)

Fresh cilantro (for garnish)

Optional: A squeeze of lime juice for brightness

Instructions
 

Sauté Aromatics: In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté for about 5 minutes, until softened. Add the minced garlic and grated ginger, cooking for another 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

    Add Carrots and Spices: Stir in the chopped carrots, ground coriander, and cumin. Cook for an additional 3-4 minutes, allowing the spices to toast slightly.

      Simmer: Pour in the vegetable broth, bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat to low. Cover and simmer for 20-25 minutes, or until the carrots are fork-tender.

        Blend: Remove from heat and let cool slightly. Use an immersion blender to puree the soup until smooth. Alternatively, transfer to a blender in batches, being careful with the hot liquid.

          Add Creaminess: Return the soup to the pot (if blended in batches), stir in the coconut milk (or heavy cream), and season with salt and pepper to taste. Heat over low until warmed through.

            Finishing Touches: For an added touch of brightness, squeeze in a little lime juice.

              Serve: Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with fresh cilantro. Enjoy your creamy carrot ginger bliss!
