Equipment
Ingredients
- 4 large carrots peeled, diced
- 2 cups swede peeled, diced
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- ½ onion diced
- 2 garlic cloves minced or finely diced
- ½ inch root ginger peeled, diced
- ½ teaspoon turmeric powder
- 1 teaspoon ground coriander
- 4 cups vegetable broth
- ½ cup non-dairy milk
- pinch salt
- pinch black pepper optional
Instructions
- Peel and dice the carrots and swede.
- Drizzle olive oil in a large soup pot and cook diced onion for 4-5 minutes, until softened. Add garlic, ginger, turmeric and ground coriander and cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring well.
- Tip in the diced carrots and swede and cook for 2-3 minutes on a low to medium heat. Pour in the vegetable broth and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to a very light simmer and cook the soup mixture for 20 minutes (or until the carrots are fork tender).
- Pour in the non-dairy milk and give it a stir. Use an immersion blender to blend the soup or transfer batches to a food processor.
- Ladle into your bowls and enjoy!
Notes
- If your carrots are organic, you likely don't need to peel them. Just give them a wash!
- Make sure the carrots are fork tender before you blend them. Give them a few more minutes of cook time if required.
- My UK readers will want to use vegetable stock for the soup.
- Nutritional information is auto-generated and should be understood to be an estimate.
- vegetable broth / stock will depend upon ingredients used.
- onion, garlic and ginger score 1.
- swede is not rated. It is low histamine on other lists, but only try if you know you tolerate it well.
- non-dairy milk has variable scores.
- coriander scores 1 on the SIGHI list, but it is unclear whether they are referring to fresh coriander or ground coriander. If unsure, you can leave it out and add a little more turmeric and a pinch of sweet paprika.
