You can use a Dutch oven or a large pot and warm the olive oil or coconut oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onions and sauté them until they turn translucent, which usually takes around 3-4 minutes.
Add the minced garlic and grated ginger to the pot. Sauté for another 1-2 minutes until the aroma releases.
Add the chopped carrots to the pot, along with ground cumin, groundcoriander, ground turmeric, salt, and pepper. Stir everything together, coatingthe carrots in the spices, and cook for a couple of minutes.
Pour in the vegetable broth, bringing the mixture to a boil. Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and simmer for about 15-20 minutes, or until the carrots become tender.
Once the carrots are soft, turn off the heat and let the soup cool slightly.
By using a regular blender or an immersion blender, blend the soup meticulously until it reaches a smooth and creamy consistency. If using a regular blender, work in batches and be cautious with hot liquids.
Return the blended soup to the pot and place it back on low heat. Stir in the coconut milk, and let the soup simmer for an additional 2-3 minutes until it is fully heated through.
Taste the soup and adjust the seasoning if necessary, adding more salt and pepper to suit your taste.
