Ingredients

¼ cup vegetable oil

1 medium yellow onion, diced

2 pounds carrots, cut into ¼-inch slices

3 cloves of garlic

1 cup raw cashews

1½ tablespoons yellow curry powder

1 teaspoon ground coriander

¼ teaspoon whole black peppercorns

1 can of coconut milk (13½ oz)

2 quarts vegetable stock

2 cups of water

Directions

1Heat the oil in a large pot over medium heat and add the onions. Cook for 5 minutes until they are translucent and beginning to caramelize. Add the carrots and cook for 10 minutes stirring occasionally. Add the garlic, cashews, spices, salt, and sugar and stir occasionally for 5 minutes. Pour in the coconut milk and stir to combine. Add the stock and bring to a boil, reduce the heat and simmer for 45 minutes to 1 hour, until the carrots are soft and tender. Add the water and turn off the heat.

2Ladle the soup into a blender, filling half full, and blend in batches until smooth. Combine all the soup together, reheat and season to taste.

3Serve in bowls and garnish with julienned apples and a squeeze of fresh lime.
