Name: Carrot Ginger Soup [Soupe de carotte au gingembre]
Prep time: 10 min
Cook time: 20 min
Total time: 40 min
Ingredients: 2 Tbsp. olive oil; 1 yellow onions (chopped); 450 g carrots (chopped); 10 g fresh ginger (peeled and sliced); 3 garlic cloves (peeled and chopped); 950 ml vegetable broth (unsalted preferably); 1 Tbsp. lemon juice; 1 tsp. apple cider vinegar; 1 tsp. salt (to taste); ¼ tsp. freshly ground black pepper (to taste); fresh parsley (to taste topping); heavy cream (to taste topping)

The Preparation

▢
Wash and chop the 1 yellow onions and 450 g carrots. Peel and slice the 10 g fresh ginger, and peel and chop the 3 garlic cloves.
▢
In a large cooking pot, heat the 2 Tbsp. olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped 1 yellow onions and cook for about 5 minutes until tender and translucent.
▢
Stir in the chopped 450 g carrots and sliced 10 g fresh ginger. Cook for an additional 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the carrots begin to soften and release aroma.
▢
Stir in the chopped 3 garlic cloves and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
▢
Pour in the 950 ml vegetable broth. Increase heat to high and bring to a boil. Once boiling, reduce heat to low and simmer uncovered for about 20 minutes, or until the carrots are very tender.
▢
Remove from heat. Carefully use an immersion blender directly in the pot and blend until smooth and creamy.
▢
Stir in the 1 Tbsp. lemon juice and 1 tsp. apple cider vinegar. Taste and season with 1 tsp. salt and ¼ tsp. freshly ground black pepper to taste as needed. If using unsalted broth this step is really important.
