I love ginger, and it's so good for you too, but great at spicing up lots of different foods, so I add it to our morning oatmeal (with lots of other fruits and nuts too) and put it into marinades, soups and desserts with abandon!

  • 2 tablespoons butter, or margerine

How To Make carrot ginger soup

  • Step 1
    Saute the onions,carrots and ginger in a large soup pot till the onions are limp but not brown. Add the flour and saute for 2 minutes, stirring constantly. Add the chicken stock, a little at a time. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and let simmer till the carrots are soft.
  • Step 2
    Let cool slightly, and in small batches, pour the soup into the blender and blend each batch till smooth, saving the batches in a clean bowl till all is blended. Return soup to the pot and add enough cream or cocoanut milk to make a smooth soup. Add salt and pepper to taste and serve immediately or reheat for later!
