Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil
- 1 small yellow onion chopped
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1-inch piece fresh ginger minced or grated
- 1 teaspoon Coriander
- 1/2 teaspoon cumin
- 1 pound medium carrots peeled and coarsely chopped (about 4-6 carrots)
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 14 ounces full-fat coconut milk (1 can)
- 1 1/2 cups vegetable broth
- Juice of 1/2 lime
- Freshly chopped cilantro for garnish
Instructions
- Add coconut oil to Instant Pot on Saute mode. Once hot, add the onions. Cook until softened, about 2 to 3 minutes.
- Add the garlic, ginger, coriander and cumin. Continue cooking for an additional minute until fragrant, then turn off the Instant Pot.
- Place the carrots, salt, pepper, coconut milk and broth in the Instant Pot. Stir to combine then secure the lid making sure the vent is turned to the "sealing" position.
- Set the Instant Pot to 15 minutes on manual HIGH pressure.
- Once done cooking, manually release the pressure by turning the dial to the "venting" position to release steam.
- Remove the lid and transfer the mixture to a high-speed blender in batches blending until smooth. Alternatively, use an immersion blender to puree the soup directly in the Instant Pot.
- Pour the soup back into the insert of the Instant Pot and stir in the lime juice. Adjust salt and pepper to taste.
- Ladle into bowls and garnish with fresh cilantro to serve.
