Simmer sweet carrots, ginger and turmeric in flavorful chicken stock for a soup that's creamy with a touch of nuttiness from tahini. Make it your own with toppings like fresh herbs, nuts, seeds and chili oil.
Prep & Cook Instructions
- Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Stir in onion, ginger, garlic and 1/2 tsp. salt. Cook about 5 minutes until onion is softened. Stir in turmeric and cook 30 seconds.
- Stir in carrots and pour in just enough stock to cover the carrots (about half). Bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to maintain a simmer and cook uncovered 15 minutes, until carrots are tender.
- Remove the pan from the heat. Blend soup directly in the pan with an immersion blender until smooth. Alternatively, transfer to a stand blender and blend until smooth, then return to pan.
- Stir in remaining stock and tahini; bring back to a simmer over medium heat. Season to taste with salt. Serve with lemon wedges and garnish with desired toppings.
