Instructions

  • Peel and dice the carrots and sweet potato, and dice the celery, onion and garlic.
  • In a large soup pot, heat up the oil and add the diced onion, garlic, turmeric and celery. Saute on a low heat for 3-4 minutes, until the onion is softened.
  • Add the diced sweet potato and carrot and cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Pour in the vegetable broth. Bring to a boil, then lower the heat to a very gentle simmer. Cook for about 15-20 minutes until the vegetables are tender, adding the fresh sage about 5 minutes before the end of cook time.
  • Use an immersion blender (or transfer batches in a food processor) and blend the soup.

Notes

  • If your carrots are fresh, there's no need to peel them. Simply give them a good wash, and remove the tops and tails.
  • Add more vegetable stock if you prefer a thinner consistency.
  • For a spicier soup, add a little fresh ginger root along with the garlic and turmeric.
