Instructions
- In a large pot, melt butter. Stir in garlic for 2-3 minutes til fragrant. Stir in onions, then carrots.
- Add vegetable broth. Bring to a boil, then continue to boil for 10-12 minutes until carrots are very tender.
- Transfer carrot mixture to a blender and puree til smooth (or use an immersion blender). Transfer back to the pot.
- Stir in heavy cream, salt, pepper, ground coriander, cumin, and lemon juice.
- Give it a taste, add more salt and pepper if needed. Stir in chopped cilantro.
Notes
- Heavy cream: I love the richness heavy cream gives to this soup, if you'd like you can substitute whole milk or fat free half and half - the result will be slightly less rich.
- Milk alternate: to keep this dairy free or to make this soup even lighter, skip the cream/milk altogether and add more broth.
