Carrot soup with ginger, hot pepper and coconut milk

January 10, 2022

Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

I think we can all agree that January is a month that we want to eat lighter but also to meet new flavors. Somehow I felt the same way, which led me to a carrot soup with ginger, hot pepper and coconut milk.

Carrot soup with ginger

This soup was a pleasant surprise for my own taste buds. When I started thinking about making a carrot soup I often wondered if the result would be too sweet because of its natural sweetness. However, I was impressed with the final result as the coriander, the fresh ginger and the hot pepper brought the soup to the balance I wanted. In addition, I will not hide from you that I was worried about whether the coconut milk will cover the other flavors. But the coconut milk was there to do what it needed to do. That is, to harmoniously pair the contrasts between the sweetness of the carrot and the sautéed onion with the spark of ginger and the spicy notes of hot pepper.

RECIPE INGREDIENTS

So if you want to enjoy this spicy carrot soup with ginger and coconut milk, all you have to do is gather around the following necessary ingredients:

  • Onion, garlic and carrots (who saw that coming?)
  • Coconut oil and milk
  • Coriander seeds, ground
  • Fresh ginger
  • White wine and boiling water
  • Lime, fresh coriander and thyme for serving

If you are a fan of hot flavors, you can optionally add hot pepper. While, I will also suggest the soup to be served with carrot pickles but also with toasted bread. I personally loved the explosions caused by a spoonful of hot and velvety soup along with a cool and crunchy pickled carrot. While, I toasted my bread in a little butter and fresh thyme. It was quite a pleasure.

Carrot pickles

So if I convinced you and you want to accompany this wonderful spicy carrot soup with pickles then keep reading. For the carrot pickles we will use ingredients that we will add in our soup. In addition, we will need a little vinegar. Add to a jar half a cup of vinegar, half a cup of boiling water, a little fresh ginger, dried coriander, salt and sliced carrot. Set aside for at least 8 hours. Ready!

Recipe process

The recipe process is very simple. First sauté the vegetables in coconut oil, first the onion and garlic and then the carrot. Then add the ground coriander, ginger and hot pepper in case we choose to add it. Add wine, coconut milk, water, salt, boil for about 15 minutes and blend. Ready!
