Heat oil in a soup pot on medium. Add the onion and carrots, and cook until onion is soft and translucent. Stir in garlic cloves, curry powder, and soy sauce. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 10 minutes.
Add in the vegetable broth and coconut milk and reduce heat to a simmer until carrots are soft, about 20 minutes.
Season to taste with salt and black pepper.
Remove the soup from heat and let cool for a few minutes. Use an immersion blender to blend or transfer to blender in batches. Add lime juice as you blend.
Serve with chopped cilantro.
Notes
For a warmer vibe, try a white cheese and some pumpkin seeds for garnish!
