Carrot Ginger Soup

Carrot soup with orange and ginger

It's no secret that I have a special passion for spices. Depending on my mood, I prefer different flavors, and especially now during the cold season, sweet and spicy tastes are just right for me.


I particularly enjoy using the fiery ginger at the moment. It has antibacterial properties, boosts the immune system, and adds that special something to my simple carrot-orange soup.

I use the fresh root and blend it with the soup.


It's truly a simple, flavorful, and nutrient-rich broth. Since the soup with citrus notes is very low in energy, it's also perfect for any diet plan, especially after indulging in holiday feasts. ;)


Do you also enjoy the ginger-orange combination?

 

Ingredients:

  • 600g carrots

  • 1 liter vegetable broth

  • 1 garlic clove

  • 2 shallots

  • 35g ginger

  • 3-4 dried soft apricots

  • 250ml pure orange juice (organic oranges)

  • Salt, pepper, paprika, fennel spice

  • Optional: savory, grated hazelnuts, and an orange slice for garnish

 
  • Serves: 4 people

  • Effort: Low The preparation is quick and the broth doesn't need to be cooked for a long time.

  • Nutritional value: Strong This vegan soup contains many important nutrients and supports a healthy immune system. It's an ideal and balanced filler.

  • Michaela's Opinion: The dish is incredibly flavorful, healthy, and budget-friendly. It's amazing how well the orange and the spicy ginger harmonize.

Instructions:

1) Sauté finely chopped shallots in oil until golden. Peel and chop 30g of ginger, add to the pan, and sauté. Add the pressed garlic towards the end.

2) Add roughly chopped carrot pieces to the pan and deglaze with vegetable broth. Let simmer for about 20 minutes until soft.

3) Add orange juice and apricots to the soup and puree until smooth using a blender. Season well with spices.

4) Optionally, garnish the soup with some savory, grated hazelnuts, and an orange slice.
