Ingredients

  • 2 small onions peeled and chopped
  • 2 pounds carrots peeled and sliced
  • salt and pepper
  • 4 cups vegetable broth
  • 1 ½ cups water plus more to thin
  • ½-1 cup full fat coconut milk*
  • 1.5-2 tablespoon thai style chili sauce**

Instructions

  • Add a little bit of water or non-stick cooking spray to a large pot and add in the chopped onion, carrots and salt and pepper to taste and cook, stirring often, until the vegetables are soft, about 15-20 minutes.
  • Stir in the vegetable broth, 1 ½ cup water, coconut milk and sriracha. Bring everything to a boil then reduce the heat to low and allow the vegetables to cook until soft and liquid to reduce a little, about 30 minutes.
  • Let the soup cool slightly, then puree in a blender until smooth. Reheat the soup in a pot, adding water if you want a thinner soup and more salt and pepper to taste if necessary. Serve warm with cilantro and more hot sauce.

Notes

*I made this soup using ½ cup of full-fat coconut milk and we liked it a lot! If you want a richer, more coconut-y flavor, then add in 1 cup. You could also use lite coconut milk, but it will be more watery.
**I used Sriracha for my thay style chili sauce. Start with 1 tablespoon of chili sauce and increase until your desired spiciness.
Leftovers can be frozen or stored in an air tight container in the refrigerator for a few days.
