Time 1h10m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil, more for pita chips
1 fat leek (or 2 slim ones), white part only, thinly sliced
6 garlic cloves, minced
1 teaspoon kosher salt, more to taste
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
1/4 teaspoon turmeric powder
Pinch of cayenne
1 1/2 pounds carrots, peeled and sliced 1/2-inch thick
1 quart vegetable broth
2 sprigs fresh thyme (optional)
2 pita breads, each cut into 16 wedges
1/3 cup tahini
Fresh lemon juice, to taste
Grated lemon zest, for garnish
1/3 cup chopped fresh cilantro or mint

Steps:

  • In a soup pot over medium heat, pour in oil, then add leek and sauté until translucent, about 4 minutes. Add garlic, salt, pepper, coriander, turmeric and cayenne, and cook until garlic is fragrant, about 1 minute.
  • Add carrots and stir to coat them with leek mixture. Cook, stirring, for 3 minutes, then add broth, thyme, if using, and 2 cups water. Bring to a simmer, partly cover and cook until carrots are very tender, about 25 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, heat oven to 400 degrees. Brush pita wedges with a little olive oil and sprinkle with salt. Spread them on a baking sheet and bake until brown and crisp, about 10 to 12 minutes. Let cool.
  • When carrots are tender, turn off heat and let soup cool for 10 minutes. Remove thyme branches and stir in tahini. Using either an immersion blender, standard blender or food processor, purée soup until smooth. Return to pot and reheat if necessary. Taste and add lemon juice and more salt if desired.
  • Serve soup garnished with the lemon zest, cilantro and pita wedges.

Tips:

  • For a smoother soup, blend it until completely smooth in a high-powered blender or use an immersion blender.
  • If you don't have a high-powered blender or immersion blender, you can also mash the carrots with a potato masher until smooth.
  • To make the soup even more flavorful, roast the carrots before adding them to the soup.
  • You can also add other vegetables to the soup, such as sweet potatoes, parsnips, or celery.
  • For a vegan version of the soup, use vegetable broth instead of chicken broth and omit the yogurt.

Conclusion:

Carrot tahini soup is a delicious and healthy soup that is perfect for a light lunch or dinner. It is also a great way to use up leftover carrots. The soup is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. For example, if you like spicy food, you can add a pinch of cayenne pepper or red pepper flakes. If you prefer a milder soup, you can omit the spices altogether. Carrot tahini soup is a versatile soup that can be served hot or cold, and it is also a great soup to make ahead of time.
