Servings: 8
Preparation Time: 45 minutes

  • 3 tablespoons organic butter or coconut oil
  • 2 onions, chopped
  • 2 lbs carrots, peeled and chopped (or use baby carrots)
  • Juice from 2 oranges
  • 1-2 teaspoons freshly grated ginger
  • 1 tablespoon garam masala
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1 handful fresh cilantro, chopped
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 quart of chicken broth (beef will work, too)
  • 14.5 ounces coconut milk*

Melt butter or ghee over medium heat and sauté onions until soft.

Add carrots, orange juice, spices and broth and simmer until the carrots are tender (20-30 minutes).

Add salt, pepper and fresh cilantro.

Use an immersion blender and puree until smooth. Or puree in batches using a regular blender.

Stir in coconut milk and add more salt/pepper to taste if needed.

* For the freshest coconut milk make homemade coconut milk. (See video at this link.)
