This sauce can easily be a soup if you prefer; just add more liquid.
INGREDIENTS (Yield = 6-8 servings)
1-2 Tbsp olive oil
1-2 Tbsp olive oil
1/2-1/3 cup ginger, chopped (doesn't mine look like a lamb?)
1 large onion, diced
2-3 garlic cloves, minced
2-3 garlic cloves, minced
1.5 Tbsp cumin
3 cups water (or vegetable broth)
6 cups carrots, sliced
1 lemon, peeled, seeds removed, & cut into large pieces (or juice it for less mess)
3 cups water (or vegetable broth)
6 cups carrots, sliced
1 lemon, peeled, seeds removed, & cut into large pieces (or juice it for less mess)
1 cup milk (optional)
a little honey (optional - this was my attempt to get the sweetness lost from omitting coconut milk)
nutmeg to taste (freshly grated, if possible); I used about 2 tsp
salt (I used 1 tsp)
green onions or parsley chopped, for garnish
PREPARATION
1. In a large pot or dutch oven, saute the onion, garlic, & ginger in olive oil for 1-2 minutes. Add the cumin & mix well. Cook another minute.
2. Add the water & cook a minute.
3. Add the carrots. Reduce the heat to medium, cover, & cook for 10-15 minutes, or until the carrots are soft.
4. Add the lemon, nutmeg, salt, milk, & honey (if using). Mix well & turn off heat. Adjust your spices to suit your taste.
5. Puree with an immersion blender or whatever device you like. If you don't have a blender, you can use a potato masher, but you may not have a smooth sauce.
6. Garnish with green onions, parsley, chives, or your favorite herb(s).
SERVING SUGGESTIONS & TIPS
SOUP: If you are making this as a soup, add more liquid.
SAUCE: Serve over rice with chicken, turkey, or tofu for a delicious meal. I cooked turkey cutlets & ate poured over brown basmati rice & turkey. My husband prefers chicken, so he had chicken.
If you make this with rice & meat/tofu, started the brown rice before starting the carrot-ginger sauce. Prepare & cook the meat or tofu while the carrots cook for 10-15 minutes (step 3).
