Curried Carrot And Ginger Soup
Curried carrot and ginger soup is a warming, velvety soup made with sweet carrots, fresh root ginger, curry powder and chickpeas.

About this recipe
Curried Carrot and Ginger Soup Thermomix TM7 style is the kind of warming soup recipe that belongs in every autumn meal prep. Fresh root ginger and curry powder give the sweet carrots a spicy, aromatic depth, while tinned chickpeas add body and a lovely bite. Using an all-in-one kitchen machine like the TM7 means you chop the onion and garlic directly in the mixing bowl, weigh the olive oil and stock paste to the gram, and blend the finished soup until silky without dirtying a separate blender. This makes it a fantastic quick weeknight dinner or lunchbox filler: simply roast the carrots for extra sweetness, then let the machine do the rest. Serve with crusty bread or a dollop of yoghurt for a satisfying vegetarian main course the whole family will enjoy.
Preparation tips
- Roast the carrots in the oven before adding them to the mixing bowl; the caramelised edges deepen the sweetness of the soup and balance the heat of the fresh ginger beautifully.
- Rinse the tinned chickpeas well before use to reduce the salty taste, and reserve a few whole chickpeas to sprinkle on top of each bowl for extra texture and a decorative finish.
- If fresh root ginger is too sharp for children, reduce the amount by half and add a spoonful of Greek yoghurt when serving to soften the spiciness of the curry powder.
Recipe variations
- Vegetarian version: replace the meat stock paste with vegetable stock paste; the chickpeas and tomato paste already give plenty of savoury depth so the soup loses none of its rich, rounded flavour.
- Festive winter variant: add a peeled, chopped apple to the carrots before roasting and finish the soup with a pinch of ground coriander and a swirl of cream for a seasonal twist on the classic ginger flavour.
