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.
