Why You'll Want This Again
This soup is rich, creamy, and full of natural sweetness from fresh carrots. It’s packed with nutrients and easy to make, perfect for a comforting meal any time of year. Plus, it’s completely plant-based and free from dairy, making it suitable for everyone.
Step 1
Melt the vegan butter in a Dutch oven over medium heat. Once it’s melted, add the vegetable broth along with the potato, carrots, onion, celery, and ginger. Cover the pot and let everything cook, stirring every now and then, until the potatoes are nice and tender—this should take about 30 minutes. After that, take the lid off and let the soup cool down for about 15 minutes.
Step 2
Puree the soup in batches using a food processor or a high-speed blender until it’s completely smooth. Pour the blended soup back into the Dutch oven, then stir in the coconut cream. Season it with curry powder, salt, and pepper to taste. Finally, warm the soup over low heat for about 10 minutes, just until everything is heated through and the flavors have come together.
