How to make it
- Heat the oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Sauté the onion, shallot and carrots until the onion is translucent, about 3 minutes.
- Add the garlic and continue cooking until the mixture is orange and the onion is soft, 4 minutes more.
- Mix in the chili paste and ginger, and cook until they are fragrant, about 30 seconds.
- Add the sweet potato and chicken broth. Pour in 1 1/2 cups water. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat to a simmer, cover and cook 20 minutes, or until the carrots and sweet potato are very soft. Let sit to cool slightly.
- Purée the soup in a blender or food processor until creamy.
- Add the coconut milk and lime juice. Whirl just until blended.
- Season the soup to taste with salt and pepper.
- For “shooters,” serve in small glasses. Garnish each serving with a thin lime wedge or a grating of lime zest.
