Ingredients

  • 2 tsp (10 mL)
    olive oil
  • 1
    large onion, diced
  • 2
    cloves garlic, crushed
  • 1 tsp (2 g)
    curry powder
  • ½ tsp
    garam masala
  • ½ tsp
    ground turmeric
  • ¼ tsp
    ground allspice (optional)

    carrots, chopped
  • 2
    medium potatoes, chopped
  • 1½
    vegetable bouillon cube
  • 4 cups (960 mL)
    water

Serves well with

Directions

  1. Add the oil and onion to a large pot on high heat. Cook until lightly caramelized, about 5 - 7 minutes. Add splashes of water as needed to deglaze the pot.
  2. Add the garlic and all the spices. Cook for another 2 minutes.
  3. Then add the remaining ingredients, except for the quinoa. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Cook for 15 minutes, or until the potatoes have softened.
  4. Using an immersion blender, purée the soup to the desired consistency. If using a standing blender, we recommend blending half, so that some small chunks remain.
  5. Serve alongside some cooked quinoa, or with croutons. Enjoy!

Storage

  • Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days.
  • Store in the freezer for up to 2 months.

Super easy to make and tasted great! I tasted the potato more than the carrot, but I'm a potato lover so that was fine. The spices were not overpowering and made it comforting.

Very tasty. This soup was a family dinner success; adults thought it was delicious and the kid finished a full
bowl. I used coriander instead of garam masala, and sprinkled chopped parsley over the quinoa (as the pictures suggested something like that, and I had parsley that needed eating). I will probably try cilantro with the leftover soup (as I doubled the recipe)!

Mmm sounds lovely! Thank you for the insight, Em 🙌

This was a good solid soup and I love the idea of quinoa as a topping 😊 next time I'll add some more different toppings to make it even more interesting 😋 it's great as a clean out the fridge or staple soup!

I am not really one for soups, but I was so excited to try some of the soup recipes in this app that I bought a standing blender! This is the first recipe I tried and I love it so much! Can't wait to try more!

Solid recipe, but I found it was lacking a little depth and acidity so I added some lemon juice and that seemed to help a lot!

PUL Team - May 8, 2023, 12:57 a.m.

Hi Dharma, there isn't a video for this recipe but our iOS mobile app will be shared soon which shows step-by-step pictures 🤗

Dharma Gopalakrishnan - May 8, 2023, 2:49 a.m.

Hi Team,
Will you have an android app coming out also, as I do use android?
Cheers,

PUL Team - May 8, 2023, 5:30 a.m.

Hi, Dharma - yes, the app's first version will only be available on iOS devices, but we aim to release an Android version soon after. We chose first to gain experience with launching the app for iOS before venturing into Android territory. We’re confident it will be worth the wait!

I was looking for a way to use up the carrots I had left over and this did not disappoint. It was very yummy and perfect for a cold winter's day.
I added a bit of cream at the end and had some leftover rice with it.
Thanks for sharing! I'll definitely make it again.

What a yummy curry/soup recipe! This definitely hits the spot. I've been enjoying it with fresh cilantro on top and some pita bread on the side.
Thanks for sharing!

Can you substitute the curry by curry mango powder (santa maria)?

PUL Team - Dec. 21, 2021, 2:20 a.m.

Hi Wendy! Feel free to use santa maria curry powder if desired. We'd also recommend giving the soup a taste and adding more spices as desired to taste 🙂
