Spicy Moroccan Carrot Soup Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
• Toss carrots in a bowl with olive oil, lemon juice, sugar, cumin, cinnamon, garlic powder, and cayenne pepper. Transfer to a large roasting pan and arrange in a single layer.
• Roast in the preheated oven, turning often, 20 to 30 minutes.

Steps:

• In a saucepan, heat the oil over medium heat, add the onions and garlic, cook stirring frequently for 5 minutes, until onions are golden in color.
• Stir in the carrots, cinnamon, ginger, turmeric and paprika, cook for 1 minute. Add in the corrot juice, tomato paste, rice, salt, pepper and 2 cups of water, bring to a boil.
• Reduce to simmer, cover and cook for 20 - 30 minutes.
• Transfer to a food processor and puree until smooth.
• Garnish with cilantro and serve.

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat and sauté the onion, celery, and carrots until the onion turns translucent and begin to brown, about 5 to 10 minutes. Add the turmeric, cumin, harissa or chile flakes, 1 teaspoon of salt, 1 cup each of the parsley and cilantro, tomatoes, and the stock or water and bring to a boil. If using the soaked chickpeas, drain them and add to the pot. Simmer uncovered for 25 minutes, then add the lentils, another teaspoon of salt and a teaspoon of pepper and continue simmering until the chickpeas and lentils are cooked, about 20 minutes more. If using canned chickpeas omit the first 25 minutes of simmering and add with the lentils.
• Whisk the flour, egg, and lemon juice into 2 cups (470 ml) of water. Stir into the soup. Simmer the soup about 5 minutes more and serve, sprinkled with the remaining cilantro and parsley. And don't forget to have some extra harissa in a plate on the side.

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Cook leek until just soft, 4 to 5 minutes. Stir in carrots and harissa. Season with salt. Cook until carrots are just soft, 8 to 10 minutes. Add chicken stock, and bring to a simmer. Cook until vegetables are tender, 10 to 12 minutes.
• Puree half the soup in a blender until smooth. (For safety, remove cap from hole in lid, and cover with a dish towel to prevent spattering.) Stir puree into remaining soup in pan. Divide soup among 4 bowls, and garnish with parsley.

Steps:

• Place the olive oil and butter in a stockpot over medium-high heat, and stir just until the butter melts. Add the onion and garlic and sauté until the onion softened and translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in the carrots and sauté for 1 minute.
• Add the vegetable stock, bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer, covered, until the carrots are very tender, about 20 minutes.
• Purée the soup until smooth. Return the soup to the stockpot. Whisk in the honey, ginger, cumin, and cinnamon. Add sea salt and pepper to taste. Warm over low heat for 1 to 2 minutes more. Serve warm or chilled. Enjoy!
