Instructions

Heat the oil in a large Dutch oven or other soup pot over medium heat. Add the onion and cook until softened, 5 to 6 minutes. Stir in the ginger, garlic, and turmeric and cook another minute until fragrant.
Add the carrots and broth. Bring to a boil then reduce to a simmer and cover the pot. Cook until carrots are tender, about 25 minutes. Stir in the orange juice, salt and pepper.
Using an immersion blender, carefully puree the soup until smooth. Alternatively, you can puree the soup in a blender. To serve, ladle the soup into four bowls and top each with garnishes like Greek yogurt, cilantro, and sunflower seeds.

Notes

coconut milk
For an extra flavor kick, roast the carrots before adding them to the soup.
Don’t skimp on the turmeric — it’s the star ingredient that gives the soup its vibrant color and immune-boosting properties.
Feel free to customize the soup to suit your taste preferences. Add a dash of cayenne pepper for heat or a drizzle of honey for sweetness.
You can stir in some canned coconut milk for extra creaminess and depth of flavor.
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days or freeze for up to 3 months.
