This dairy free soup is probably one of the tastiest soups I've ever made. This recipe will give you another reason to store Miso paste at home (beyond making a simple miso soup or a more complex miso cod...)Miso is a fermented condiment (natural probiotic) very popular in parts of Asia. It is rich in many nutrients and thus linked to a variety of health benefits, including better digestion and stronger immune system. In this recipe I add it at the end so it gently melts into the soup adding a new level of flavour to your eggplant and onion mixture.You can skip that step but I highly recommend you try it!For the rest of ingredients, you'll need eggplant, red onion, garlic broth and coconut milk!This is an easy soup to make. And you can even roast the eggplants ahead of time.

Instructions

Heat oven on 400F (200C) and prepare the eggplants. Slice them in half. drizzle olive oil and salt and place face down on a baking tray with parchment paper. Bake for about 30min until flesh is cooked (soft).
Meanwhile in a large saucepan, sauté the chopped onions and garlic in a drizzle of olive oil, adding the rosemary branch to start diffusing flavours. When onions are soft and browned, add the salt, broth and coconut milk and let infuse on low heat for about 10 minutes.
When the eggplant is cooked, scoop out the flesh and add to the pan. add miso paste and remove the rosemary branch.
Transfer to a high speed blender or use an immersion blender, and pulse until smooth and creamy! taste and adjust with salt if needed.
Serve with toasted pine nuts, fresh herbs and a lime wedge and enjoy this incredible soup for dinner, preferably!
