Easy Roasted Carrot Ginger Soup With Greek Yogurt And Croutons Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
• Place carrots in a large bowl and drizzle one tablespoon of the olive oil over the top. Toss to coat and add 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Toss again. Spread in a single layer on a rimmed cookie sheet and bake, stirring/flipping every 15 minutes or so, until tender and browned in spots, about 40 minutes total. Remove from oven and let cool a bit.
• While the carrots are cooking, heat the remaining tablespoon of olive oil in a large soup pot over medium-low heat. Add the onions and cook until just beginning to brown, about 8 - 10 minutes. Add the ginger and the vegetable broth and bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover, and let simmer for five minutes until ginger is tender. Remove from heat.
• When both the roasted carrots and the broth have cooled somewhat, add the carrots to the broth. Working with a blender in batches, puree the soup and return it to the pot; or use an immersion blender directly in the pot. Please make sure your soup has cooled enough to safely puree!
• Place pureed soup over medium heat and return to a simmer. Reduce heat to low and stir in the heavy whipping cream or coconut milk. Taste and add additional salt and pepper if desired. Serve.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
• Dice the pepper and the carrots and halve the garlic cloves. Toss with olive oil, salt, and pepper, and spread on a baking sheet in a single layer.
• Roast the veggies for 40 minutes, or until they start to get brown and caramelize. Stir once or twice during roasting.
• Put grated ginger, stock, and a glug or two of soy sauce into the food processor. Add some hot sauce if you like it spicy.
• Put all the roasted veggies into the food processor and puree until smooth.
• At this point the soup will have cooled down a bit, so you can either pop it in the microwave or put it in a pot on the stove for a few minutes to warm it up.
• Serve with a dollop of greek yogurt on top and lots of crunchy croutons!

Steps:

• Combine the olive oil and onion in a Dutch oven or heavy pot over medium-high heat. Sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon salt and cook, stirring, 10 minutes, until just starting to caramelize. Add the garlic and ginger and cook, stirring, 2 more minutes, being careful not to burn the mixture. Stir in the carrots, potato and the chicken or vegetable stock. Bring to a simmer, cover and cook until the carrots and potato are very tender, 15 to 18 minutes. Keep warm. Meanwhile, in a small saute pan over high heat, lightly toast the pine nuts. Set aside to cool. In a small bowl, combine the yogurt, honey, thyme and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Puree the soup with an immersion blender until very smooth (or puree in a regular blender in batches). Adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper and serve with a dollop of the yogurt mixture and some pine nuts.

Steps:

• In a large soup pan, over medium heat, saute the garlic and onions in the olive oil until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the carrots, potatoes, ginger, cumin and broth, cover and simmer for 20 minutes, or until the carrots are tender but not mushy.
• Remove the pot from the heat. Puree half this mixture in a food processor or blender. Combine the pureed and unpureed parts of the soup together to create one nicely textured whole. Add more broth if necessary to achieve the desired consistency. Taste and adjust seasoning. Serve hot, garnished with a dollop of yogurt.
