Roasted Black Carrot Soup with Feta & Almonds

By now we all know I am OBSESSED with Black Carrots and this Roasted Black Carrot Soup with Feta & Almonds is my latest love. Easy to make, super delicious and oh so nutritious.

If you follow me on Instagram, you know I have been obsessing over Black Carrots. I made a friend lug me some from Delhi & I have been cooking and baking with them like crazy. The carrots are almost over now and this Roasted Black Carrot Soup with Feta & Almonds is the last thing I made with them.

If you are wondering what exactly are black carrots, I wrote a piece for Goya Journal on them. The article also has the recipe of my favourite probiotic drink in the whole world – Kaanji. These little gems that come for a very short time every year, are my favourite kinds of carrots honestly. I don’t even get them in Bangalore very easily but I make sure I get my hands on some every year.

They have a beautiful earthy flavour that I can’t get enough of. They are also perfect in salads and stir-fries. Apart from the flavour, they add a fantastic colour to the dish as well. I recently made a kickass black carrot cake with them this time. And also used the puree in a black carrot sourdough bread.

But probably the best thing to come out of my kitchen with these black carrots this year was this soup. Roasted Black Carrot Soup with a crunch of toasted almonds, a generous helping of feta, topped with some microgreens and served with a slice of bread. Perfect healthy dinner option.

Ingredients
  

For Roasting the carrots

  • 3-4 Black carrots 250 gm approx
  • 1 small onion
  • 5-6 cloves garlic
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp chilli flakes
  • 4-5 leaves basil
  • Salt to taste

For garnishing

  • 1/4 cup feta cheese or more
  • 1/4 cup toasted almonds roughly chopped
  • microgreens or chopped parsley

For soup grinding

  • 1 cup vegetable stock or water

Instructions
 

  • Peel and roughly chop the black carrots, add garlic, chilli flakes, salt and olive oil and rub it mixed. In a preheated oven at 200C, grill them for around 20 minutes till tender.
  • In a blender with heat friendly grinding, puree the carrots with a little vegetable stock till smooth. If you don't have a heat friendly mixer, cool the carrots somewhat and then grind. We like our soups thick and don't mind a bit of texture, if you want it super smooth, filter at this stage.
  • In a heavy bottom pan, add the pureed carrots, water/vegetable stock and bring to boil. Adjust the thickness by adding more liquid or boiling till it is thick enough for you.
  • Served garnished with toasted almonds, generous amount of feta cheese and microgreens/parsley.
