Ingredients
  

1 tablespoon coconut oil

1 medium onion, diced

3 cloves garlic, minced

1-inch piece of fresh ginger, minced

4 large carrots, peeled and diced

1 medium potato, peeled and diced

4 cups vegetable broth

1 can (13.5 oz) coconut milk

1 teaspoon ground cumin

1 teaspoon turmeric powder

Salt and pepper to taste

Juice of 1 lime

Fresh cilantro or basil leaves for garnish

Optional: Crushed red pepper flakes for heat

Instructions
 

Sauté Aromatics: In a large pot, heat the coconut oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in the minced garlic and ginger, cooking for an additional 2-3 minutes until fragrant.

    Add Vegetables: Toss in the diced carrots and potato, stirring to combine with the aromatics. Cook for 5 minutes to allow the vegetables to start softening.

      Spice It Up: Sprinkle the ground cumin and turmeric over the vegetable mixture. Stir well to coat the vegetables in the spices, allowing them to toast for about 1 minute.

        Pour in Broth: Pour in the vegetable broth, bringing the mixture to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer for 20-25 minutes or until the carrots and potatoes are tender.

          Blend It Smooth: Once the vegetables are tender, remove the pot from the heat. Use an immersion blender to puree the soup until smooth. Alternatively, you can carefully transfer the soup to a blender in batches and blend until creamy.

            Add Coconut Milk: Return the blended soup to the pot over low heat. Stir in the coconut milk, mixing well until the soup is creamy and heated through. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Add lime juice for a bright finish.

              Serve: Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with fresh cilantro or basil leaves. If you prefer some heat, sprinkle with crushed red pepper flakes. Serve warm and enjoy your exotic creation!
