Carrots, ginger and coconut soup









Love soups we eat around the year not matter weather is, I love especially at night, the only thing when you make soups at home you have to think BEFORE to cook the veggies, sometimes I wanna soup but I forget cook the veggies:(
This soup come from Vietnam food, a place that really I enjoy a lot of recipes. The coconut in the soup is so tasty and we love here!



INGREDIENTS

1 onion cut in slices
2 tablespoon of butter
1 1/2 teaspoon of ginger
1 garlic clove
2 cups of carrots peel and cut
1 green apple peel in cubes
1 cup of coconut milk
salt



Method

Saute onions in butter. When they are translucent, add the ginger and garlic, cook for about two minutes and then add carrots, chopped apple and salt.
Cover with water and cook medium heat about 40 minutes.
When the carrots are really tender  drain and save the water cooking.

Grind in a blender with coconut milk and cooking water you want to add.
Serve with green onion into pieces.
