Notes

You can cut the prep time down by using a food processor or buying prepared carrots that don’t need dicing. I am sure I could start a ginger fight here over how much ginger you should add to your carrot ginger soup and what’s too hot and what’s too mild.
I like a LOT of ginger and added 4 heaped tablespoons of diced ginger. If you wanted a mild version or you’re feeding children, then 2 heaped tablespoons would be fine. Also remember we are pressure cooking, so you would use more ginger than you would in other gadgets as it strips flavour.
I had some spare butternut squash and added it to the recipe. If you have some spare root vegetables then do add them in. swede, turnip, butternut squash, sweet potatoes or onions made brilliant add ins to your carrot ginger soup. It doesn’t matter if your garlic and ginger are not thinly grated.
Because the soup is going to be blended until smooth anyway, so you don’t have to worry about big lumps of ginger or garlic. To reheat: Pour the contents from the bag into the Instant Pot and place the lid on and set the valve to sealing. Cook for 0 minutes on manual. Use quick pressure release and serve with your warm bread.
