A warm and flavorful soup combining carrots, potatoes, and aromatic spices for a comforting meal.
Peel and chop the carrots, potatoes, celery ribs, and onion into small pieces.
Uniformly chopped vegetables ensure even cooking.
In a large pot, bring the water to a boil.
Use a pot with a lid to speed up the boiling process.
Add the chopped vegetables to the boiling water and reduce the heat to a simmer.
Simmering gently helps retain the flavors of the vegetables.
Once the vegetables are tender, remove the pot from heat and let it cool slightly.
Allowing the soup to cool slightly makes blending safer.
Blend the soup in batches until smooth, then return it to the pot.
Blending in batches prevents overfilling the blender.
Stir in the soy sauce, cumin, cayenne pepper, garam masala, and turmeric.
Taste and adjust the seasoning as needed.
Simmer the soup for an additional 5 minutes to meld the flavors.
Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
Serve the soup hot, garnished with fresh herbs if desired.
Pair with crusty bread for a complete meal.
