2 celery stalks, chopped
1 leek, chopped
1 tablespoon garlic, chopped
3 tablespoons fresh ginger, chopped
1 pound dried green split peas
6 cups vegetable broth

1
Heat olive oil in a large soup pot over medium heat. Add onion, carrots, celery and leek. Cook until the onion is translucent, about 10 minutes. Add garlic and ginger and cook for 2 minutes until fragrant.

Remove from heat and let cool before blending. Blend using either an immersion blender or a standard blender, working in batches if needed.

For the carrot shavings, heat vegetable oil in a saucepan over medium high heat. Coat carrot shavings with flour then fry for 2 minutes until the edges begin to crisp. Remove from oil and drain on a paper towel to cool.
5
Lightly toast coconut shreds in a small skillet over medium heat. Remove from heat as they begin to turn light brown.
