Female Nomad's Curried Carrot Soup image

This recipe comes from Rita Golden Gelman's (aka the Female Nomad) book "Female Nomad and Friends" -- all about traveling the world and connecting through food. This dish is adapted from Adrienne Jury in New Zealand and supposedly was fave soup of the King Gustav of Sweden. I'm making it for a big RZ-Food Network UK dinner party to celebrate the book. Can't wait to see how it turns out!

Time 45m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 medium onions, sliced
1 tablespoon salted butter
10 carrots, cut into 1/2-inch slices (about 6 cups sliced carrots)
1 -2 tablespoon curry powder, to taste
2 tablespoons instant chicken bouillon granules (I am skipping this and trading some veggie broth for part of the water)
6 cups water, divided
salt, to taste
fresh ground black pepper
2 tablespoons applesauce
2 tablespoons fresh dill, snipped
2 tablespoons of fresh mint, chopped
1/2 cup low-fat sour cream

Steps:

  • Saute the onion in the butter for 5 minutes.
  • Add the carrot slices, curry powder, powder chicken stock (or veggie stock) and 3 cups of water (or less water if trading in veggie stock).
  • Simmer until the carrots are soft, 30-35 minutes. As soup is cooking, add the remaining 3 cups of water in half cup increments.
  • Add salt and pepper, and adjust for taste.
  • To blend, put half the soup in a blender or food processor. Blend at medium speed for a few seconds. Add the rest of the soup and the applesauce. Blend until smooth.
  • Serve with fresh dill, mint, and sour cream sprinkled on top.

I love making this soup in the fall when carrots are at their best. The soup is always a hit with my family and friends. I usually serve it with a side of rice or quinoa.

This soup is a great way to warm up on a cold day. The flavors are comforting and satisfying, and the soup is always creamy and smooth. I usually serve it with a side of crusty bread or crackers.

I'm not a big fan of carrot soup, but this recipe changed my mind. The curry and ginger add a delicious flavor that makes the soup anything but boring. I also love how easy it is to make; I can have it on the table in less than an hour.

This soup is a lifesaver on busy weeknights. It's quick and easy to make, and it's always a hit with my family. I usually add a bit of extra curry powder to give it a little more flavor, and I always serve it with a side of rice.

This soup is a great way to use up leftover carrots. It's easy to make and has a delicious, slightly sweet flavor. I added a bit of extra ginger to give it a little more kick, and it was perfect. I'll definitely be making this soup again!

Meh. I was disappointed with this soup. The flavors were just okay, and the soup was very thin and watery. I ended up adding a lot of extra ingredients to try to improve the flavor, but it still wasn't great. I won't be making this soup again.

This soup was good, but not great. The flavors were a bit bland for my taste, even after adding extra curry powder and ginger. The texture was also a bit too watery for my liking. I think I'll try a different carrot soup recipe next time.
