I'm all about soups so thick they're almost stews in the winter. Saint Joanie calls them "stoup" and I suppose I learned by example. This Warming Root Vegetable + Turmeric Soup is definitely one of those, even though it's blended. If you don't share my passion for standing your spoon up in your bowl, add a little more broth to your soup to reach a consistency that works for you.
This turmeric soup has a touch of natural sweetness.
This recipe is packed with natural sweetness from the carrots and sweetpotato (yes, it's one word, go ahead and check me), so I like to offset that with a bit of spice. I like this brand of harissa, and use it often. You could use another hot sauce like sriracha, or skip it altogether. I also use a good chunk of fresh turmeric - I think it's delicious, so I use it in all kinds of things. The internet says it will cure virtually everything, so I guess we have that going for us too!
Ingredient + cooking method swaps:
Although I use vegetable broth in this soup, you can use chicken stock if that's what you have on hand.
You can definitely use your InstantPot to make this (I know someone is going to ask). Just saute the veggies a bit and then let the soup setting do its thing. Since the cook time is so short, I just do it on the stovetop.
When you try this Warming Root Vegetable + Turmeric Soup recipe, let me know what you think!
Wishing you all the best in the new year. xo- KC
