Keep the family warm, healthy and happy with this creamy fruity carrot soup topped with chopped parsley and pink peppercorns. Adding fresh orange juice to the soup to bring out the sweetness of carrots. I also added some white beans because they make the soup even creamier and richer when blended! Next time I will for sure add a few pinches of chilli flakes for some extra heat.

  • 2 tbsp Olive oil
  • 400 g Carrots, peeled and chopped
  • 2 Garlic cloves, sliced
  • 250 g Cooked white beans
  • 1 tsp Fresh ginger, grated
  • 1 tsp Curry powder
  • 650 ml Chicken broth
  • 100 ml Freshly squeezed orange juice
  • 100 g Crème fraîche
  • Sea salt
  • Cayenne pepper powder
  • 2 tbap Fresh parsley, choped (for topping)
  • 1/2 tsp Pink peppercorns (for topping), optional
  • Extra-virgin olive oil
  1. Heat a large saucepan over medium heat. Add in olive oil. Cook chopped carrots and sliced garlic, stirring often, for 5 minutes or until just soft.
  2. Add in white beans, grated ginger, and curry powder. Stir briefly. Pour in broth and freshly squeezed orange juice. Reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer for 20 minutes or until carrot is tender.
  3. Use a stick blender to puree until smooth. Stir in crème fraîche and season with salt and cayenne pepper.
  4. Ladle into serving bowls, then scatter with chopped parsley and pink peppercorns if using. Drizzle with a little olive oil and serve immediately.

  4. I don't do fruit in my savoury food, but it does look gorgeous, you managed to achieve nice lighting for the shoot and it brought up the lovely brightness of the carrot soup into nice focus. I've actually made carrot pizza for lunch today.

  13. I love soup of any variety, although I do like my soups to be thick, creamy and hearty. I like the idea of adding a little chilli to this recipe, just for that extra kick to the flavour!

    Looks good enough to eat! :)

  20. The color of this soup makes me want to try it. It sounds like a soup that could be served hot or cold. What do you think? Would it be good cold? I ask because I love cold soups in the summer.
