INGREDIENTS
1 tbsp olive oil
1 onion, chopped
3 cloves of garlic, minced
Thumb size piece of fresh ginger, grated
450g carrots, peeled and chopped
1 Goju Turmeric Shot
4 cups vegetable stock
1 tsp ground cumin
1/2 tsp ground coriander
1/2 tsp ground turmeric
1/4 tsp cayenne pepper (optional, for heat)
Salt and pepper to taste
Fresh coriander or parsley for garnish (optional)

INSTRUCTIONS

  1. Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until it becomes translucent and fragrant, about 5 minutes.
  2. Add the minced garlic and grated ginger to the pot. Sauté for another 1-2 minutes, until fragrant.
  3. Add the chopped carrots to the pot and stir well to combine with the onions, garlic, and ginger. Sauté for about 5 minutes to allow the flavours to blend together.
  4. Pour Goju Turmeric Shot and a table spoon of water with a over the carrots in the pot and stir.
  5. Add the vegetable broth, ground cumin, ground coriander, ground turmeric, and cayenne pepper (if using) to the pot. Stir to combine.
  6. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover the pot and let the soup simmer for about 20-25 minutes or until the carrots are tender.
  7. Remove the pot from the heat and let the soup cool slightly. Using an immersion blender or regular blender, puree the soup until smooth and creamy. Be careful when blending hot liquids.
  8. Return the soup to the pot and season with salt and pepper to taste. If the consistency is too thick, you can add a bit more vegetable broth or water to achieve your desired consistency.
  9. Reheat the soup over low heat if needed. Serve hot, garnished with fresh cilantro or parsley if desired.
