## Ingredients

- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1.5 pound carrots
- 2 large shallots
- 3 cloves garlic
- 2 heaping tbsp fresh ginger
- 1.5 tsp coconut sugar
- 1 tsp ground coriander
- 1 tsp ground turmeric
- 0.5 tsp ground cumin
- 1 unit bay leaf
- 1 tsp salt
- 0.5 tsp black pepper
- 4 cups vegetable broth
- 1 can full-fat coconut milk
- 1 handful chopped fresh cilantro
- 1 tablespoon olive oil

## Instructions

1. Heat olive oil in a stockpot over medium heat. Add diced carrots and shallots; season with salt and pepper. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until shallots are translucent and carrots soften.
2. Sprinkle coconut sugar over the vegetables. Cook for 2-3 minutes more, stirring often, to caramelize.
3. Add minced garlic, ginger, and spices to the pot. Cook for 1 minute until fragrant, stirring to prevent burning.
4. Pour in vegetable broth and coconut milk, scraping up any caramelized bits. Add bay leaf and bring to a boil.
5. Once boiling, cover, reduce heat to low, and simmer for 20 minutes, or until carrots are tender.
6. Remove bay leaf. Use an immersion blender to blend the soup until smooth and creamy. If using a high-powered blender, carefully transfer the soup in batches and blend for about 2 minutes until silky smooth. Return to pot.
7. Ladle soup into bowls, garnish with cilantro and a drizzle of olive oil, and serve.
