For a deeper smoky flavor, experiment with different types of wood chips. Adjust the amount of jalapeno pepper according to your spice preference. If you don't have a smoker, you can roast the carrots in the oven with a touch of smoked paprika for a similar flavor. Garnish with a swirl of cream, a sprinkle of fresh herbs, or a drizzle of olive oil for an elegant presentation.

Follow The Directions
01
StepPrepare 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
StepSauté 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
StepCombine 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
StepInfuse 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
StepBlend 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
StepFinal Simmer and Enrich: Continue simmering the soup for an additional 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
07
StepFinish 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!
