2/3/2014

 
Chilled Carrot-Fennel Soup

2 tablespoons butter (or coconut oil)
½ cup chopped white onion

1 pound large carrots, peeled, cut into ½-inch dice (2 cups)
1 (1 inch) piece of fresh ginger, peeled and grated

Salt and pepper to taste

Melt butter in large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add onion and fennel, cook 2 minutes. Mix in carrots and half of the ginger. Add broth; bring to a boil.  Reduce heat, cover, and simmer until carrots are very tender, about 20 minutes.

Remove soup from heat and allow to cool. Puree in batches in blender until smooth. Transfer to a pitcher. Stir in honey, remaining ginger, orange juice and zest. Season with salt and pepper. Keep chilled until ready to serve.

Pour soup into glasses or small bowls. Dollop some yogurt (or coconut milk) over the soup and sprinkle generously with cardamom, orange zest and mint.
