My Soup Signal goes off when winter’s chill takes hold. This quick and easy curried carrot soup will fill your kitchen with amazing aromas of curry, cider and ginger — an added benefit for those whose Soup Signals are more olfactory than weather-related.
Dial up or down the spice in this dish to suit your tastes and remember, with any good soup or casserole recipe, feel free to add and delete ingredients according to what you have available and what you prefer!
It couldn’t be easier to make: simply cook the carrots in broth, then purée.
Each time I make this recipe it is a little different, altered slightly to complement the rest of my meal or what I have on hand. Add more broth, cider or coconut milk if you like your soup thinner, cook longer without the lid if you like a thicker consistency. I’ve given you a few garnish options as well – choose one or none at all – you’re in charge!
Serve with homemade gluten free baguettes, gluten-free cornbread, or even gluten-free pumpkin cornbread for a Halloween/autumnal theme. It’s also delicious to use as a sauce over grilled fish or veggies. So many possibilities!

- 2 tsp. curry powder
- 1/4 tsp. red pepper flakes
- 1/2 Tbs. fresh finely chopped and peeled ginger
- 1 clove garlic finely chopped (optional)
- 2 lbs carrots peeled and chopped

Instructions
- Sauté onion in olive oil over medium-high heat until translucent. Add to stock pot or pressure cooker, together with remaining ingredients and bring to a boil or pressure cook for 8 minutes on high.
- Once boiling, reduce heat to medium-low and cover, stirring periodically until carrots are soft. Using an immersion blender (or transfer to a blender or food processor) purée soup to desired smoothness.
- If the soup is too thick for your liking, add more cider, broth or coconut milk to achieve your desired consistency. If it is too thin, continue to cook uncovered until it cooks down.
