50 minutes

Step 1

Into a medium pot, add the olive oil, onion, and celery. Saute for 6-7 minutes over medium heat.

Step 2

Add the garlic, turmeric, bay leaves, salt, and pepper. Cook for about 1 minute.

Step 3

At this point, add the carrots, potatoes, and veggie broth. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat, and simmer for 25-30 minutes, until the potatoes and carrots are very tender.

Step 4

Remove the bay leaves from the soup and discard them.

Step 5

Using an immersion blender, process the soup about halfway, until you get a creamy texture, but some large potato and carrot pieces remain.

Step 6

Now pour in the coconut milk, add the parsley, bring it to a gentle simmer, and turn off the heat. Serve.
