Ingredients
-
1 tablespoon salted butter
-
1 tablespoon olive oil
-
2 cups coarsely chopped onion
-
1 ½ pounds carrots, peeled and cut into chunks
-
3 tablespoons chopped fresh ginger
-
3 cups low-sodium vegetable broth, or more as needed
-
¼ teaspoon salt, or more to taste
-
¼ teaspoon ground white pepper
-
½ cup full-fat unsweetened coconut milk
Directions
-
Heat butter and oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add onion; cook until translucent, 5 to 6 minutes. Add carrots and ginger; cook for 1 to 2 minutes more. Stir in broth and salt. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, covered, until carrots are very tender, 20 to 30 minutes.
-
Puree soup with an immersion blender until smooth and creamy, or let cool slightly and blend in a blender, working in batches as needed. Return to heat and add more broth as needed for desired consistency; soup should be thick. Season with pepper and additional salt if needed.
-
Ladle soup into 4 bowls. Swirl 2 tablespoons coconut milk into each bowl.
Cook's Notes:
You can use black pepper instead of white.
Canned coconut milk can be pretty chunky, so shake it vigorously before opening the can.
