Bright & Spicy Carrot Ginger Soup

This Carrot Ginger Soup, inspired by Delish Cooking, is a vibrant and nourishing dish that beautifully balances sweetness, spice and creaminess. Fresh carrots provide a naturally sweet base, while aromatic ginger and garlic infuse the soup with warmth and depth. The result is a silky, golden blend that’s as visually inviting as it is flavorful.

Sautéed shallots, ginger and garlic form the foundation of the soup, releasing their fragrance as they lightly brown. Curry paste adds a subtle layer of spice that complements the sweetness of the carrots. When simmered with vegetable stock, coconut milk and a splash of fish sauce, the ingredients meld into a rich, flavorful broth.

A touch of lime zest and juice brightens the soup, enhancing its layers of flavor. Once blended to a smooth consistency, it transforms into a creamy, velvety bowl that feels both comforting and refreshing. The addition of roughly chopped cilantro adds a burst of freshness and a subtle herbal note that balances the warmth of the ginger and curry, bringing the whole soup to life.

For serving, the soup is garnished with fresh cilantro, baked shallots, and an optional drizzle of chili oil for a hint of heat. These final touches add texture, color, and a burst of freshness. Whether enjoyed as a starter or a main dish, this Carrot Ginger Soup offers warmth and nourishment in every bite.
