Ingredients
- 3 medium carrots, finely chopped
- 2 medium turnips, finely chopped
- 1 tbsp sesame seeds
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1 tsp cayenne or chili powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 3 cups water
Instructions
Step 1
Finely chop the carrots and turnips.
Step 2
Heat a little oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute.
Step 3
Add the chopped carrots, turnips, salt, cayenne (or chili powder), and sesame seeds. Sauté for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Step 4
Pour in the water and bring to a gentle simmer. Cook for about 15 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender.
Step 5
Let the soup cool slightly. Serve it as is, or blend it until smooth for a creamy texture.
Step 6
Garnish with fresh herbs, extra sesame seeds, or a drizzle of coconut cream if desired. Serve warm. This subtly sweet soup feels like a warm hug and a comforting pick-me-up.
