Equipment
- 1 Grater or microplane for ginger and turmeric
Ingredients
For the broth base
- 2 cups Bone Broth (Chicken or beef. Use what you tolerate)
- 2 tbsp Fresh turmeric root, grated (or 1 tablespoon ground turmeric)
- 2 tbsp Fresh ginger, grated
- 4 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 tbsp Coconut oil or olive oil (extra virgin olive oil)
- 1 tsp Black pepper (essential for turmeric absorption)
- 1 tsp Sea salt (adjust to taste)
For the vegetables (low-FODMAP adaptable)
- 2 medium Carrots, sliced
- 2 stalks Celery, chopped
- 2 cups Leafy greens (spinach, chard, or kale)
- 1 medium Zucchini, diced
- 1 cup Cooked chicken or chickpeas for protein (Optional)
For finishing
- Fresh cilantro or parsley
- Squeeze of fresh lemon juice
- Coconut cream for richness (dairy-free!) (Optional)
Instructions
Step 1: Build your flavor base
- Heat the coconut oil in a large pot over medium heat.
- Add the grated turmeric, ginger, and minced garlic.
- Sauté for about 2 minutes until fragrant.
Step 2: Add your bone broth
- Pour in the bone broth and add the black pepper and salt.
- Bring to a gentle simmer for about 10 minutes.
Step 3: Add your vegetables
- Start with the carrots and celery since they take longer to cook.
- Simmer for 10 minutes, then add the zucchini.
- Cook for another 5-7 minutes until vegetables are tender but not mushy.
Step 4: Add your greens and protein/Chickpeas (optional)
- Stir in the leafy greens you're using and protein/chick peas (if using).
- The greens will wilt in just 2-3 minutes.
- If you're adding pre-cooked chicken or chickpeas, just warm them through.
Step 5: Finish and serve
- Remove from heat and add a squeeze of fresh lemon juice.
- Ladle into bowls and garnish with fresh herbs.
- If you want extra richness, swirl in a tablespoon of coconut cream.
Notes
- Use chicken bone broth for a lighter flavor or beef bone broth for a richer base.
- Always include black pepper to help your body absorb the curcumin in the turmeric.
- For a low FODMAP version, ensure your bone broth does not contain onions or garlic.
- Store leftovers in a glass container in the fridge for up to four days.
