Ingredients
  

  • 1 tbsp coconut oil
  • 1 leek washed well and finely sliced
  • 2 cloves garlic crushed
  • 30 g knob ginger peeled and grated (or add 1 tsp of ground turmeric)
  • 1 tsp salt flakes freshly ground pepper
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • ½ tsp smoked paprika
  • 600 g carrot peeled and grated (preferably local and/or organic)
  • 1 L vegetable stock
  • 150 ml coconut milk

To garnish

  • fresh herbs (e.g. coriander and spring onion tops or chives) finely chopped
  • extra coconut milk to drizzle

Instructions
 

  • Heat the coconut oil in a large saucepan over medium heat, then add the leeks, garlic, ginger, turmeric, salt flakes, and a grind of black pepper.
  • Saute for about 5 minutes or until the leeks have softened. Add the cumin and paprika and cook for another minute until fragrant. Add the carrots and toss to coat in the spiced leek mixture, then add the vegetable stock and give everything a good stir.
  • Bring to the boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 10-12 minutes. Add the coconut milk and cook for a further minute. Blend soup either with a stab blender, such as a Bamix, or allow to cool before blending in a blender. Reheat soup and taste. Adjust seasoning if necessary.
  • Serve the soup sprinkled with fresh herbs and a drizzle of coconut milk.

Our retail shop in Yamba is now CLOSED

Thank you to everyone who has supported us during the past 17 years. It’s been a fantastic experience but it’s time for new adventures!

Our retail store is now CLOSED. However, there’s a small selection of products available via our online store, all at 50% off. You’ll need to apply this code at the checkout – CLOSINGDOWN25.

We’d like to continue to offer cooking classes and other local food experiences, but first some time off to rest and rejuvenate! We’ll share updates here on the website, in our newsletter, and on Instagram and Facebook.

Meredith’s food tours for 2025 are unaffected by the shop’s closure. The tours to Umbria and Morocco are fully booked, however there are spots available on our fabulous Sicily tour in October 2025.

We hope to connect with you sometime soon.
