Ingredients

• 2 cups Edamame (shelled, frozen)
• 4 cups Vegetable broth
• 1 cup Coconut milk
• 1 medium Onion (chopped)
• 3 cloves Garlic (minced)
• 1 tablespoon Ginger (grated)
• 2 tablespoons Lime juice
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro (chopped, for garnish)
• 1 teaspoon Sesame seeds (for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Start by preparing the ingredients. Chop the onion, mince the garlic, and grate the ginger.

Step 2

Heat olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté for 4-5 minutes until softened.

Step 3

Stir in the garlic and ginger, cooking for another minute until fragrant.

Step 4

Add the frozen edamame and vegetable broth to the saucepan. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium-low and let it simmer for 10 minutes.

Step 5

Carefully transfer the soup to a blender (in batches if necessary) and blend until smooth. Alternatively, use an immersion blender directly in the saucepan to puree the soup.

Step 6

Return the blended soup to the saucepan. Stir in the coconut milk, lime juice, salt, and black pepper. Cook for an additional 5 minutes over low heat, stirring occasionally.

Step 7

Taste and adjust the seasoning with more salt or lime juice if needed.

Step 8

Ladle the soup into bowls, and garnish with chopped fresh cilantro and a sprinkle of sesame seeds.

Step 9

Serve immediately and enjoy your Edamame Soup with a Twist!
