1 cup diced carrots
1 cup diced celery
6 cloves garlic, pressed or minced
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
6 to 8 cups chicken or vegetable stock

2 large handfuls fresh baby spinach or kale
fine sea salt and freshly-cracked black pepper
optional toppings: freshly-grated Parmesan cheese and/or chopped fresh basil

CREAMY SPINACH AND CARROT SOUP



Creamy Spinach and Carrot Soup image

My mother-in-law made this all the time and even my 7 year old would eat it. Pretty impressive for spinach! I've changed up a few things though by adding more salt, pepper and nutmeg to taste. I also like to use 2 bags of pre-washed fresh spinach instead of frozen. And, I tried it in the crock pot last week and it was sooo simple!

CURRIED CARROT AND COCONUT SOUP



Curried Carrot and Coconut Soup image

There's a nice challenge in staring into a less than sufficiently stocked refrigerator. Last night we were down to not much more than carrots. Thus: them, an onion, grated ginger, a sort of curry mix. There was stock in the freezer, a can of coconut milk. A lime. Wish I'd had cilantro, but hey, it worked.

Provided by Mark Bittman

Categories     dinner, lunch, quick, weeknight

Time 30m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

3 tablespoons butter
1/2 medium onion, roughly chopped
3/4 pound carrots, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch coins
1 teaspoon peeled, grated fresh ginger
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin, to taste
1/2 teaspoon ground tumeric, to taste
1/2 teaspoon ground coriander, to taste
Pinch of cayenne pepper
2 cups chicken or vegetable stock
1 cup unsweetened coconut milk
Juice from ½ lime
Salt and freshly ground pepper
Cilantro, if you have it

Steps:

  • Heat the butter until the foam subsides. Add the diced chopped onions, sprinkle with salt, stir to coat with butter. Add the chopped carrots along with the spices. Stir and cook until softened, about 10 minutes.
  • Add the stock; there should be enough to cover the vegetables. Bring the pot to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat to medium and continue cooking until the carrots are cooked through, about 10 to 15 minutes.
  • If you have an immersion blender, purée the soup in the pot. If not, wait until the soup cools slightly, and purée in a food processor. Add enough coconut milk (and a little more stock or water if necessary) to bring the soup to the consistency you want. Adjust the seasoning (depending on the stock you use, you may need more or less salt), and lime juice to taste. Garnish and serve.
