Heat the oil in a Dutch Oven or large heavy-bottomed pot over medium heat. Add the onions, carrots, and 1/2 tsp of salt. Cook for about 7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables start to soften.

Step 2

Add the minced garlic, grated ginger, and optional curry powder and red pepper flakes. Cook for another 2 minutes.

Pour in the vegetable broth and season to taste with salt and pepper. Bring to a simmer and cover. Cook for 30 minutes until the vegetables are very soft.

Step 4

Uncover and blend until very smooth with an immersion blender. You can also transfer the soup to a regular blender then add back to the Dutch Oven. Stir in the Milkadamia Macadamia Milk and season to taste with additional salt and pepper.
