Subj : St. Placid 05 To : All From : Dave Drum Date : Thu May 06 2021 17:12:00 MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06 Title: Placid Baker's Carrot-Ginger Soup W/Curry & Coconut Milk Categories: Vegetables, Herbs, Curry, Soups Yield: 3 1/2 quarts 1 3/4 lb Carrots; washed well - unpeeled 3 tb Olive oil; divided 2 ts Kosher salt; more to taste, - divided Fresh cracked black pepper 2 c Onions; fine diced 5 Ribs celery; fine diced 1 sm Knob ginger; peeled, minced 1 tb Coriander seed or ground - coriander 1 tb Curry powder 1/2 ts Turmeric 13 oz Can unsweetened coconut - milk Set the oven @ 425ºF/218ºC. Trim the root end off each carrot. Roughly chop the carrots into 2" pieces. Cut lengthwise through the carrots at the thicker parts. Transfer carrots to a rimmed sheet pan. Toss with 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1 teaspoon kosher salt, and freshly cracked black pepper to taste. Transfer pan to oven and roast for 25 minutes or until edges begin to caramelize in places. Meanwhile, in a large pot, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over high heat with the onions, celery, and ginger. As soon as you hear a sizzle, turn the heat down to low, season with a pinch of salt, stir, cover, and cook for 15 minutes. Remove lid every so often, letting the condensation drip back into the pot, to check on the vegetables; stir to be sure the vegetables aren’t sticking or browning - the goal here is to get the vegetables soft, not to brown them (though a little browning is fine). If you are using whole coriander seeds, toast in a small skillet until fragrant and beginning to brown. Use a mortar and pestle to grind them into a fine powder. Once the onions, celery, and ginger have cooked for 15 minutes, add the coriander, curry powder, and turmeric. Stir to combine. Add the roasted carrots and the can of coconut milk. Fill up the empty can with water and add to the pot. Do this once more. Add the remaining teaspoon kosher salt. Bring to a simmer. Use an immersion blender to purée until smooth. Alternatively transfer to a food processor and purée in batches. Taste. Adjust taste as desired. Simmer to thicken if necessary; add more water if too thick.
