Follow The Directions

01

Step

Prepare the Carrots: Place the whole, peeled carrots directly onto the smoker rack. Smoke for 1 1/2 to 2 hours, allowing them to absorb a rich, smoky flavor.

02

Step

Sauté Aromatics: In a large soup pot (1 1/2 to 2 gallon capacity), heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onions, jalapeno pepper, and garlic. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions become softened and translucent, approximately 5 minutes.

03

Step

Combine and Cook Vegetables: Chop the smoked carrots and add them to the pot along with the celery. Continue cooking for another 5 to 10 minutes, or until the celery starts to soften.

04

Step

Infuse with Spices and Simmer: Stir in the turmeric and curry powder, ensuring the vegetables are evenly coated with the spices. Pour in the vegetable stock. Bring the mixture to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer gently for 1 1/2 hours, stirring occasionally.

05

Step

Blend to Perfection: Carefully strain the vegetables from the soup. Transfer the strained vegetables to a blender and puree until completely smooth. Pour the pureed mixture back into the soup pot.

06

Step

Final Simmer and Enrich: Continue simmering the soup for an additional 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.

07

Step

Finish and Serve: Whisk in the butter until fully melted and incorporated. Stir in the cream, then season the soup to taste with salt and pepper. For an extra smooth texture, strain the soup through a fine-mesh strainer before serving. Enjoy!
