Step-by-Step Instructions for Spicy Miso Carrot Soup
- Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large pot over medium heat for about 1-2 minutes until shimmering.
- Add 1 diced medium onion to the pot and sauté for 5-7 minutes until translucent and fragrant. Toss in 2 minced garlic cloves and 1 tablespoon of freshly grated ginger, cooking for an additional minute.
- Incorporate 4 cups of chopped carrots into the pot, stirring frequently for another 5 minutes until softened.
- Pour in 4 cups of vegetable broth and increase heat to bring to a gentle simmer. Cover and cook for 15-20 minutes until fork-tender.
- Blend the soup until smooth using an immersion blender, or in batches with a regular blender until velvety.
- Dissolve 3 tablespoons of miso paste with a ladle of hot soup in a small bowl, then add back to the pot on low heat.
- Stir in 1 can of coconut milk and 2 tablespoons of soy sauce, adjusting with Sriracha to your taste.
- Taste and season with salt and pepper. Serve in bowls and garnish with chopped green onions and cilantro.

Notes
Avoid boiling the soup after adding miso to preserve its probiotics. You can add more broth for desired consistency or prep vegetables ahead of time for quicker cooking.
