Ingredients

• ¾ stick unsalted butter
• 1 large yellow onion, chopped
• ½ cup chopped fresh ginger
• 5 cloves garlic, minced
• 7 cups low-sodium chicken broth
• 1 ½ pounds carrots, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch pieces

• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, or more to taste
• ⅓ teaspoon curry powder

Cooking Directions

1. Melt butter in a large pot over medium heat. Add onion, ginger, and garlic; saute until softened, 15 to 20 minutes. Add broth, carrots, and wine. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium and simmer, uncovered, until carrots are tender, about 45 minutes.
2. Puree with an immersion blender until carrots are no longer chunky and soup has a thick consistency. Add lemon juice, salt, pepper, and curry powder. Serve in large mugs with chives and fresh black pepper.
