Creamy Carrot & Red Lentil Soup
Course
Serves 4
Blending removes all fibrous texture, making this safe even during flares. Red lentils break down very smoothly. Avoid adding seeds or nut toppings. Store in the fridge up to 4 days or freeze in portions.
Ingredients
Instructions
Warm olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in garlic and ginger and cook 1 minute more.
Add carrots, cumin, and turmeric. Stir to coat everything in the spices and cook for 2 minutes.
Add red lentils and vegetable broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer uncovered until lentils are completely soft and carrots are tender, about 20 minutes.
Use an immersion blender (or transfer in batches to a blender) and blend until completely smooth.
Stir in coconut milk and salt. Warm through over low heat for 2–3 minutes. Ladle into bowls and serve warm.
