Creamy Vegetable + Kimchi Soup

Ingredients

Serves 2

 

Produce

9 carrots, peeled, washed and roughly diced

4 potatoes peeled, washed and roughly diced

½ leek, cut into smaller pieces

1 thumb size ginger, peeled and sliced

2-3 chili peppers, roughly chopped

1 onion, peeled and roughly diced

5 garlic, minced

Grapefruit zest

Small chunks of fresh chives, thyme, and parsley chopped together

 

Baking & Spices

1/2 tsp salt

1/2 tsp black pepper

Condiments

1 tsp soy sauce

 

Refrigerated

1 tbsp Kimchi

 

Oils & Vinegar

3 1/2 tbsp olive oil

 

Directions

  1. Heat up a thick bottomed pot with the olive oil on medium-high heat. Choose a pot that has a lid and is bigger than all ingredients can fit in.

  2. Add carrots and potatoes to the pot, stir them gently. Make sure that they don’t stick to the bottom of the pan. This is when you can also adjust the heat. If it is too high, potatoes tend to get stick to the bottom and get burned.

  3. Once carrots and potatoes turn slightly into translucent at the edge, add garlic, onions, chili pepper, and leeks. Mix them all up together gently. Add salt.

  4. Once the vegetables are well covered in oil, and start to change colors, add the herbs.

  5. Quickly stir up all the ingredients so the herb scent and flavor gets to oil and other vegetables without getting too cooked. Takes about 1 min.

  6. Add a bottle of water. The water should cover the ingredient just enough. Turn up the heat to high and bring it to boil for 5 min or until carrot is cooked.

  7. Cover the pot with the lid, turn down the heat to low. Let it simmer for another 5 min.

  8. Turn off the heat and cool it down a bit. Blend until creamy with a blender.

  9. Put appropriate portion in a bowl, garnish with a spoonful Kimchi, spring onion slices and Grapefruit zest.

  10. Enjoy!
