Serves 6
Ingredients
- 2 tsp curry powder
- 1 tsp salt
- 2 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
- 680g medium carrots, trimmed, peeled, sliced lengthwise and cut
into 2.5cm (1 inch) pieces - 2 medium yellow onions, quartered and sliced into 2.5cm (1 inch) chunks
- 400ml tin full-fat coconut milk
- 480ml (2 cups) water or broth
- Half a lemon, juiced
- Fresh coriander, for serving, optional
Method
- Preheat the oven to 200°C/400°F/Gas 6.
- Mix the curry powder, salt and olive oil together in the bottom of a large bowl. Add the carrots and onions to the bowl. Toss to coat, and then pour it all out onto a parchment-lined baking tray.
- Bake until the vegetables are very tender and just beginning to caramelise, about 30-40 minutes.
- Remove the vegetables from the oven and transfer them to a large pan.
- Add coconut milk and water (or both). Let the mixture simmer for just a few minutes.
- Then, working in batches, transfer to a blender and blend until smooth. Return the soup to the pan and warm. Add lemon juice and fresh coriander before serving.
