soup-met-blender
Peel and cut the carrot, sweet potato and pumpkin into chunks
Cut the onion into chunks or slices
Put 2 tablespoons of coconut oil (or olive oil) into a pan
Add the onion and some salt, (about 1 teaspoon – you have to add some more salt at the end) about ¼ teaspoon of curry powder, 1 teaspoon of turmeric and some black pepper.
Add about half an inch (or a little more if you like ginger) of finely chopped fresh ginger
Stir for a few minutes.
Add the chopped vegetables and stir for another few minutes
Add water, almost or just covering the vegetables
Bring to boil and when the sweet potato, carrot and pumpkin are getting soft you add a full tin of coconut milk.
Add about 2 tablespoons of chopped up fresh coriander, bring to boil and simmer for another few minutes.
Blend with a blender.
