Watery soup

I made a harissa carrot soup w vegetable broth and water. It lacks depth that chicken stock usually gives it - is there anyway I can fix it now? I have to keep it vegetarian.

Thanks for the suggestions. I just added salt, lemon juice and a few TBS of tahini. That seemed to help some.

If you dont have to serve it right away, let it sit overnight and see what you think tomorrow.

Also you can doctor it with a few aromatics and some fat, e.g. onion, garlic, bay leaf, olive oil. Also taste for and adjust (add more) salt, if needed. Last, you can brighten it with a tablespoon or so of acid (ctirus juice, good vinegar).
As it's harissa, I would NOT add pepper in any form (ground black, fresh or dried chili). All you'll get is more heat, not more flavor.
