Instructions

1
In a pot, sauté the chopped onion in olive oil until translucent. Add the sliced carrots and sauté for 5 minutes, until they lightly caramelize.
2
Stir in the grated ginger, crushed garlic, turmeric and black pepper. Stir for 1 minute until the spices become fragrant.
3
Pour in the vegetable stock. Once it comes to a boil, reduce the heat, cover and cook for 15–20 minutes, or until the carrots are completely tender.
4
Meanwhile, in a dry pan over medium heat, quickly toast the pumpkin seeds until they start to pop and become fragrant. Remove from heat and set aside.
5
Remove the pot from the heat. Add the coconut milk and lemon juice. Blend the soup with an immersion blender until completely smooth and creamy.
6
Season with additional salt if needed. Serve the soup in bowls, sprinkled with toasted pumpkin seeds and a few drops of olive oil or coconut milk.
