Ingredients
Scale
Vegetables & Aromatics
- 3 large carrots, peeled and chopped
- 1 medium onion, diced
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, minced
Spices & Liquids
- 1 teaspoon ground turmeric
- 4 cups vegetable broth
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
Instructions
- Prepare the aromatics: Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the diced onion, minced garlic, minced ginger, and ground turmeric. Sauté for about 5 minutes until the onion becomes translucent and the spices release their fragrance.
- Add carrots and broth: Add the chopped carrots to the pot and pour in the vegetable broth. Stir well to combine all the ingredients evenly.
- Simmer until tender: Bring the mixture to a gentle boil, then reduce heat to low. Let the soup simmer for 20 to 25 minutes or until the carrots are very tender when poked with a fork.
- Blend the soup (optional): For a smooth and creamy texture, carefully transfer the soup in batches into a blender and pulse until smooth. Alternatively, use an immersion blender directly in the pot to puree the soup to your desired consistency.
- Serve warm: Pour the heated soup into bowls and serve immediately to enjoy its comforting and immune-boosting benefits.
Notes
- You can adjust the amount of turmeric depending on your spice preference.
- For added protein, consider stirring in cooked chickpeas or lentils before serving.
- This soup stores well for up to 3 days refrigerated and can be frozen for longer preservation.
- Using fresh ginger and garlic maximizes the immune-boosting properties of the soup.
- To make it vegan, ensure your vegetable broth is free of animal-derived ingredients.
