Step 1
Pour 6 cups vegetable broth into a large pot and set the heat to medium-high until the liquid comes to a rolling boil with large bubbles breaking the surface, about 5 minutes.
Step 2
Open the can of coconut milk and pour the entire contents into the boiling broth, stirring once or twice to combine.
Step 3
Add 3 tablespoons peanut butter to the pot and stir with a wooden spoon for 1 minute until the peanut butter dissolves and the liquid looks smooth and uniform.
Step 4
Add the 4 cups chopped cabbage and 2 sliced carrots to the pot, then stir once to submerge the vegetables.
Step 5
Lower the heat to medium and simmer uncovered for 12 to 15 minutes, stirring every 3 minutes, until the carrots are fork-tender when pierced and the cabbage is soft.
Step 6
Taste the broth from a spoon and add salt and pepper in small pinches until it tastes savory and balanced to you.
Step 7
Divide the soup evenly among four bowls, including vegetables and broth in each bowl.
