Ginger, turmeric, & carrot soup with curried chickpeas @KerrygoldUSA


·
Warm, spiced soup brightens up any chilly day. https://kerrygoldusa.com/recipes/ginger-turmeric-carrot-soup-with-curried-chickpeas/…
Meal type: starters
Product: Kerrygold Salted Butter
Serves: 6 cups
Ingredients
For Soup:
2 tablespoons Kerrygold
1 cup chopped onion
3 1/2 cups peeled, chopped carrots
2 teaspoons minced garlic
3 tablespoons minced fresh ginger
2 1/2 cups low-sodium vegetable broth
1 (14oz) can coconut milk
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1 1/2 teaspoons ground turmeric
Curried chickpeas
Chopped fresh cilantro
For Curried Chickpeas:
1 (14oz) can chickpeas, drained
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon curry powder
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
Instructions:
For Soup:
- Melt Kerrygold Salted Butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add onion and carrots and cook until onions are translucent (about 5 minutes).
- Stir in garlic and ginger and cook for another minute.
- Stir in remaining soup ingredients and stir to combine. Allow soup to come to a boil and then reduce heat to medium low and cover.
- Cook for 35-40 minutes or until carrots are fork tender. Allow to cool slightly.
- Transfer soup to a blender in batches and puree until smooth (tip: be careful to only fill the blender jar to about 1/3 – 1/2 full. Secure the lid on the top and hold a dish towel over it to prevent the top from coming off during blending).
- Season soup to taste with additional salt and pepper, if needed.
- Top with curried chickpeas and fresh cilantro.
For Curried Chickpeas:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Place drained chickpeas on a dish towel. Carefully blot them dry with another dish towel (the drier the chickpeas, the more they will crisp up in the oven). Discard and papery skins from the chickpeas.
- Pour chickpeas onto a baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and salt and gently stir them around so they are coated on all sides. Bake for 25 minutes.
- Remove pan from oven. Sprinkle chickpeas with curry, cumin and pepper. Stir to coat. Return pan to oven and cook for another 10-15 minutes or until chickpeas are crisp
NOTE: Roasted chickpeas will lose their crispness when stored. They are best enjoyed immediately after baking.
