CREAMY GINGER-ASPARAGUS SOUP



Creamy Ginger-Asparagus Soup image

Creamy is front and center in the recipe title and it is certainly earned, but this silky vegan soup takes an alternative route from the usual dairy-based add-ins to get there. The secret ingredients that create the creamy texture are probably already in your pantry: starchy russet potatoes and heart-healthy olive oil. Aromatics like cilantro, shallot, and ginger are blended in to punch up the flavor; and while you won't be able to taste it, baby spinach gives the soup its vibrant green color.

Categories     Food & Cooking     Soups, Stews & Stocks     Soup Recipes

Time 55m

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 tablespoons plus 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for serving
1 shallot, chopped

Kosher salt and fresh ground pepper
1 1/2 pounds asparagus, ends trimmed, stalks chopped (3 cups)
1 cup packed cilantro leaves (from about 1 large bunch)
2 cups packed baby spinach
Lemon wedges, for serving

Steps:

  • Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large pot over medium heat until shimmering. Add shallot and ginger and cook until softened, 4 to 5 minutes. Add potato and 4 cups water. Season with salt and pepper and simmer until potatoes are just tender, 5 to 6 minutes.
