Best 20 Roasted Carrot Soup Recipes

ROASTED CARROT AND CAULIFLOWER CURRIED SOUP

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Place carrots and cauliflower in a casserole dish; toss with olive oil, garlic, salt, and black pepper.
• Roast carrot mixture in the preheated oven for 20 minutes; stir and roast until vegetables are tender and slightly charred, another 25 minutes. Remove from oven and stir.
• Bring vegetable broth to a boil in a large pot. Stir in curry powder and add the roasted vegetables. Cover and boil soup until vegetables are soft, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from heat.
• Blend the soup with a potato masher or an immersion blender until smooth. Return pot to burner on medium heat. Stir coconut milk and lime juice into soup; simmer until heated through, 5 to 10 minutes.

ROASTED CARROT, PARSNIP AND POTATO SOUP

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Line a sheet pan or a baking dish with parchment or foil. Toss vegetables, including garlic cloves, with olive oil and salt and pepper to taste. Spread in baking dish or on sheet pan in an even layer and place in oven. Set timer for 20 minutes.
• After 20 minutes, stir vegetables and turn heat down to 400 degrees. Roast for another 20 to 30 minutes (or longer; I have found every oven I've used to be different, thus the range), or until very tender and caramelized on the edges, stirring every 10 minutes. Remove from the heat. You should have about 4 cups roasted vegetables.
• Hold garlic cloves with a towel so that you don't burn your fingers. Squeeze out the pulp into a blender. Add half the vegetables and 2 cups of the stock. Cover the top of the blender with a towel pulled down tight, rather than airtight with the lid, because hot mixture will jump and push the top off if the blender is closed airtight. Blend until smooth and transfer to a soup pot. Repeat with the second half of the roasted vegetables. Transfer to the pot and whisk in remaining broth. Season to taste with salt and pepper and heat through. Serve each bowl with a sprinkle of chopped fresh herbs and if you wish, a swirl of crème fraîche or yogurt.

Transfer vegetables to large bowl (do not clean baking sheet).
• Add 1 cup water to baking sheet, scraping up browned bits; add to blender, then add half of vegetables and puree until smooth. Transfer to large saucepan. Add remaining vegetables and 1 1/2 cups water to blender and puree. Transfer to same saucepan. Gradually add enough milk to soup to thin to desired consistency. Stir in 1/4 cup basil. Simmer 10 minutes to blend flavors. Season with salt and pepper. (Can be made 6 hours ahead. Cover; chill. Bring to simmer before continuing.)
• Ladle soup into bowls. Sprinkle with remaining 1/4 cup basil and serve.

ROASTED CARROT SOUP

• Peel and cut the carrots into ½-inch rounds. On a rimmed baking sheet, toss the carrots with 2 tablespoons of the olive oil and sprinkle generously with salt. Set an oven rack 6 to 8 inches from the heat source and turn on the broiler. Broil the carrots until they brown and soften, turning them over with a spatula every 5 minutes or so; this should take 15-20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, bring the stock to a boil. Add the ginger and the sprig of thyme and simmer gently for 15 minutes.
• Dice the onion and place in a medium stockpot with the remaining olive oil. Cook the onion over medium heat, stirring frequently, until softened and lightly browned. Season. Add the garlic, and then the carrots.
• Remove the ginger and thyme from the stock, and add the stock to the pot with the onions and carrots. Bring to boil and simmer for 5 to 10 minutes, until the carrots are soft enough to purée.

GINGER-ORANGE ROASTED CARROT SOUP WITH SPICY SHRIMP

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450°F.
• Put the carrot disks on a cookie sheet, drizzle them with a little EVOO, and season them with salt and pepper. Toss the carrots around to make sure they are well coated. Spread in an even layer then roast them for 15 minutes, or until they are tender and the bottoms are browned. Stir the carrots at least twice while they roast so they cook evenly. Zest the orange and reserve.
• In a shallow dish, combine the juice of half of the orange with the hot sauce, 2 tablespoons of the EVOO, and a little salt. Add the shrimp and toss to coat; set aside for a few minutes.
• Preheat a soup pot over medium-high heat with 2 tablespoons of the EVOO, twice around the pan. Add the onions, ginger, garlic, curry powder, and salt and pepper to the pot and cook until the onions are tender and lightly colored, about 5 minutes, stirring frequently. If you find the onions are browning before they are getting tender, add a splash of water. Transfer the cooked onions to a blender or food processor, where they can wait for the carrots to finish roasting. Return the soup pot to the cooktop, add the chicken stock, and bring it up to a simmer.
• When the carrots are roasted, transfer them to the blender or food processor where the onions are patiently waiting. Add a little ladle of the hot chicken stock and puree until the vegetables are smooth. Start by pulse-grinding the mixture to get it going and then let 'er rip. Add more hot stock, bit by bit, until it incorporates. Careful, sometimes when blending hot things the blender or food processor top is not tight enough and you can get splashed: put a kitchen towel over the lid for extra safety. (Hot carrot puree is not a home facial technique!) Add the carrot-onion puree to the bubbling stock and stir to combine, then let the soup gently simmer while you cook the shrimp.
• Preheat a large skillet over medium-high heat with the remaining tablespoon of EVOO. Drain the shrimp and cook them on each side for 2 to 3 minutes, or until cooked through. Add the parsley and toss.
• Check the soup consistency. If you want it thicker let it simmer a little bit longer; if you want it less thick, add a couple splashes of chicken stock to thin it out. Add the orange zest, stir it to combine, then taste and check for seasoning and adjust with salt and pepper.
• Ladle some soup into shallow serving bowls and arrange 3 shrimp in the center of each bowl, standing up if you can manage it.

ROASTED-CARROT SOUP

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Cut onion into 8 wedges (keep root end intact to hold layers together). Toss onion, carrots, endive, oil, salt, and pepper in a medium bowl. Transfer to a rimmed baking sheet, and spread in a single layer. Roast vegetables, turning occasionally, until edges are deep golden brown, about 30 minutes.
• Cut off root end from onion. Transfer all vegetables to a large saucepan, and add bay leaf. Add enough stock to just cover (about 2 cups). Bring to a simmer, and cook until carrots are very soft, about 30 minutes. Let cool slightly, and discard bay leaf. Puree vegetables and stock in a blender until smooth (work in batches, if necessary, to avoid filling blender more than halfway).
• Transfer puree to a clean pan; place over low heat. Stir in cream; add stock to thin soup to desired consistency. Season with salt and pepper; stir in ginger. If desired, pipe creme fraiche onto each serving, or place dollop on top.

ROASTED CARROT & GARLIC SOUP

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 300 degrees.
• To prepare garlic, cut off the top third of the head. Drizzle with 1 T olive oil and then wrap tightly with aluminum foil. Roast in oven 45min to an hour until very soft.
• Place sliced carrots in a baking pan large enough so they sit in a single layer. Drizzle the remaining oil on them and stir so that they are covered. Put the pan of carrots in the oven with the garlic. Give them a stir every 20 minutes or so to prevent sticking.
• While carrots and garlic are roasting, heat butter in a large skillet over medium low heat. Saute onions for about 15 minutes stirring occasionally til soft and translucent. Turn off the heat while you wait for the carrots to finish roasting.

• Now put your carrots in the pan with the onions and add 2 cups of stock. Bring to a simmer over medium heat and simmer for about 15 minutes.

• Add carrot and onion mixture to the blender as well and blend until smooth.
• Pour soup back into the skillet and gently heat to a simmer, adding more stock as needed to reach the consistency you want. Now add your cumin and salt, tasting to see if more is needed.
• Ladle into bowls, top with a dollop of sour cream and enjoy!
