Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat oven to 375 F.
- Combine the onion, garlic cloves, gold and sweet potatoes, carrots, parsnips, cauliflower and tomatoes in a roasting pan and toss with the olive oil and thyme.
- Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
- Add about a cup of the broth and a half cup of wine to the pan and roast the vegetables for about 45 to 50 minutes, until they are tender.
- Stir at least once during roasting. When the veggies are roasted, pour the rest of the broth into a soup pot and bring to a high simmer.
- Add the roasted vegetables (including any liquid and all the bits and pieces from the pan).
- Cover the soup pot and simmer gently for about 10 to 15 minutes. Using an immersion blender (or a regular blender if you don’t have one) puree the soup.
- Add the coconut milk, stir and taste for seasoning adjustments, and warm through gently.
- Add more liquid if your soup is thicker than you prefer; if it is too thin, cook a little longer to reduce the liquid.
