Sorry, I copied to the list a version of this recipe where I was trying to

see the nutritional change if it was made with skim milk.

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

2 1/2 cups water

14 ounces coconut milk -- (not " lite " )

1 tablespoon instant vegetable stock powder

1 tablespoon mild curry blend plus

1 teaspoon mild curry blend

1/2 teaspoon salt -- or more to taste

1 pound carrots -- peeled or scrubbed

trimmed and cut into large chunks

OR baby carrots

1 large sweet onion -- quartered

(about 8 ounces)

1 large russet potato

peeled and cut into 8 chunks

(about 8 ounces)

Finely chopped fresh cilantro for garnish --

(optional)

 

Prep: about 10 minutes (if using baby carrots). Cooking: 20 minutes

 

In a large soup pot, bring the water, coconut milk, stock powder, curry,

and salt to a boil over high heat.

 

Meanwhile, in several batches, pulse the carrots, onion, and potato in a

food processor until very finely chopped. As you finish chopping each

batch, add it to the soup. Return the soup to a boil, cover, and simmer,

stirring occasionally, until the carrots are very soft, about 20 minutes.

 

Puree the soup with an immersion blender (or cool slightly and puree in

small batches in a blender or food processor). Add more salt if needed and

reheat if necessary. Garnish each serving with cilantro if you wish.

 

Makes 4 servings

 

Cooking under pressure: Leave the carrots in large chunks but coarsely chop

the onion and potato. Cook the soup in a pressure cooker for 5 minutes

under high pressure. Use a quick-release method or allow the pressure to

come down naturally. Proceed as directed in the recipe.

 

Curried carrot and pea soup with basmati rice: Turn leftovers into a main

dish by reheating with some frozen peas. Ladle the soup over boiled

basmati rice and garnish with a sprinkling of finely chopped cilantro.
