Ingredients
  

  • 4 Cup Fresh Carrots chopped (about 5 medium carrots)
  • 1 Onion medium,chopped
  • 2 Garlic cloves, minced

  • 1 teaspoon Cumin Seeds
  • 1 teaspoon Coriander Powder

Instructions
 

Prepare the Ingredients

  • First, wash and chop the carrots, onion, garlic, and ginger. This is the perfect time to get your hands dirty, and trust me, the smell will be amazing!

Sauté the Aromatics

  • In a big pot, heat a little oil. Add cumin seeds and let them splutter — this part is fun! Then, toss in the onions, garlic, and ginger. Sauté until the onions become soft and smell yummy.

Cook the Carrots

  • Add the chopped carrots to the pot. Stir them for a couple of minutes so they get all coated with the flavors. It's like they’re getting ready for the soup party!

Add Spices and Broth

  • Sprinkle in some turmeric and coriander powder. Then pour in the broth or water. Bring it to a boil, then lower the heat and let it simmer for about 20 minutes or until the carrots are soft. All things considered, this is when the magic happens!

Blend the Soup

  • Once it’s cooked, carefully blend the soup until smooth and creamy. Be super careful with hot liquids, though! It’s like making a smooth, velvety potion.

Final Touches

  • If you like, add cream for extra richness. Then season with salt and pepper to your taste. This is the part where you can adjust the flavors.

Serve and Enjoy

  • Finally, garnish with fresh coriander and serve! Now, enjoy your delicious carrot soup— warm, spicy, and just perfect!
