Whether roasted with olive oil, blitzed for a juice, chopped into a soup, or eaten crunchily raw, there is always a special place in my kitchen for a good bunch of carrots. What makes them especially healthy in my opinion is the variety of factors they contribute to: skin health, eyesight, and strong hair and nails. They're also a great source of antioxidants, which become more readily available to the body, once the carrot is cooked.
Ingredients for carrot soup:
Method of preparing the carrot soup:
-
Sauté the onion with coconut oil over medium-high heat.
-
Stir in the curry paste, then add the carrots. Cook only for a minute before adding the coconut milk and salt. Cover with water.
-
Simmer 10-15 minutes until your carrots seem tender. Next puree the mix with a blender or hand blender.
-
If needed, you can thin out the soup with lemon juice or, if you'd prefer it, use water.
