Salt and black pepper to taste

Instructions

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

Blend the Soup: Using an immersion blender, blend the soup until smooth and creamy. Stir in the coconut milk and adjust seasoning with more salt and pepper if needed.
Serve: Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with chopped cilantro if desired. Enjoy it warm!
