This is a packed flavor carrot ginger soup that will keep you warm during the winter. This soup is super easy and the slow cooker will make all the hard work for you.
I enjoy making this soup on those winter lazy days where I’m not enjoying to spend too much time cooking. I wake up early, toss all the ingredients for the soup in the slow cooker and then when it’s the time of my lunch… Bangs! My soup is ready.
It’s that easy, and it’s that simple.
What is different about cooking this carrot soup in the slow cooker?
Flavor:
When cooking in the slow cooker, you must be aware that the flavors will intensify—especially garlic. When I make this recipe on the stove top, I usually use 3-4 garlic cloves but in this version, I get the same flavor payoff with just 2 garlic cloves, amazing huh?
The ginger also intensified so ½ tbsp of minced ginger is enough to give flavor to the entire soup without overpowering the sweetness of the carrots.
Time:
Well, it’s called slow cooking for something. You will need to plan ahead. As I’ve mentioned, I set up this soup in the morning (around 7am). The soup will be ready for lunch (around 14 pm) if you cook it in slow mode. If you use the high mode you will need 4 hours instead of 7.
I hope you enjoy this winter warmer soup and I see you in the next one!
