Instructions

Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Toss carrots with 1 ½ tablespoon olive oil and sea salt. Roast for 25-30 minutes.

In a large dutch oven, sauté onion in the remaining olive oil over medium heat until softened. Add garlic and cook for another minute.

Add roasted carrots, navy beans, water, thyme, sage, and Thai chili. Bring to a boil, then simmer for 15-20 minutes.

Blend half of the soup with a high-speed blender for a creamy texture, or use an immersion blender for a chunkier version.

Stir in lemon juice, butter, and black pepper. Adjust seasoning, and enjoy!

Tips & Tricks (5)

Roast for Depth 🔥
Roast the carrots before adding them to the soup to intensify their natural sweetness and add a complex caramelized flavor profile.
Bean Texture Mastery 🫘
If using dried beans, soak overnight and cook until just tender to prevent mushiness and maintain a creamy yet structured texture in the soup.
Aromatics Layering 🧅
Sauté the onions and garlic slowly in olive oil until they're translucent and fragrant to build a robust flavor foundation for the soup.
Blending Technique 🥄
Use an immersion blender for smoother control, or carefully transfer to a blender in batches, always leaving some texture for a more rustic soup experience.
Spice Balance 🌶️
Use the Thai chili sparingly and add it gradually to control heat, allowing the delicate flavors of beans and carrots to shine through.
