The combination of carrots and ginger is heaven sent, offering multiple health benefits as well as a fantastic orange colour. The taste sensation comes from the mixture of Asian-influenced ingredients with fresh, healthy carrots.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This ginger carrot soup recipe is very easy to make. It\u2019s even better when you can source fresh herbs from your own garden or buy organic.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Recipe<br \/>\nIngredients<\/strong><br \/>\n\u20221 kg carrots<br \/>\n\u20223 small or 2 large leeks<br \/>\n\u20221 teaspoon chopped lemongrass<br \/>\n\u20223 cups vegetable stock<br \/>\n\u20224 teaspoons freshly grated ginger<br \/>\n\u20221\/4 cup fresh coriander<\/p>\n<p><strong>Procedure<\/strong><br \/>\n1.Peel and chop carrots into large chunks.<br \/>\n2.Finely chop leeks and fry for 3-4 minutes until slightly brown.<br \/>\n3.Add carrots and stir over medium heat for 5 minutes.<br \/>\n4.Add stock, cover and simmer until the carrots are soft (20-30 minutes.)<br \/>\n5.Stir through lemongrass, coriander and ginger.<br \/>\n6.Cool soup for 5-10 minutes then blend.<br \/>\n7.Serve garnished with coriander.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Tips<\/strong><br \/>\n\u2022Adding ginger towards the end of cooking preserves its health benefits more fully, particularly its ability to aid and soothe the digestive system. I use a lot of ginger in this recipe because I love it. Feel free to use 2-3 teaspoons for a less dominant ginger flavour.<br \/>\n\u2022You can substitute onions or spring onions for the leeks if necessary.<br \/>\n\u2022This carrot and ginger soup works really well as an appetiser when you\u2019re entertaining. Its colour is brilliant and its Asian flavours are a little exotic and unusual.<br \/>\n\u2022Freezes well for up to 3 months.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>I made this for dinner tonight in my new Health Cuisinart Machine and it was yummy!<\/em><\/strong><br \/>\n<!--break--><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Lift your mood with this radiant carrot ginger soup recipe.
