A creamy, hearty, and flavorful vegan soup made with carrots and potatoes. Perfect for chilly days and loved by vegans and non-vegans alike.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 cups carrots, peeled and chopped
  • 3 cups potatoes, peeled and cubed (Yukon gold or russet)
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 4 cups vegetable broth (low-sodium or homemade)
  • 1 cup full-fat coconut milk
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Salt to taste
  • Pepper to taste
  • Pinch of smoked paprika
  • Optional garnish: fresh parsley, chopped, or a sprinkle of nutmeg

Instructions

  1. Peel and chop the carrots and potatoes into small chunks. Dice the onion and mince the garlic.
  2. Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic, cooking until softened and fragrant, about 3-4 minutes.
  3. Stir in the chopped carrots and potatoes, and cook for another 5 minutes to let them absorb the flavors.
  4. Pour in 4 cups of vegetable broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer. Cover and cook for 20 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender.
  5. Using an immersion blender, blend the soup until smooth. If using a countertop blender, work in batches and be cautious with the hot liquid.
  6. Stir in 1 cup of coconut milk. Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt, pepper, and smoked paprika.
  7. Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with chopped parsley or a sprinkle of nutmeg.

Notes

[‘Chop carrots and potatoes into similar-sized pieces for even cooking.’, ‘Take time to sauté onions and garlic for deeper flavor.’, ‘Let the soup cool slightly before blending in a countertop blender to avoid splattering.’, ‘Adjust the consistency by adding more vegetable broth or water if the soup is too thick.’, ‘Experiment with seasonings like cumin, turmeric, or curry powder for flavor variations.’]
