Carrot and Coriander Soup


Vegetable soups are full of vitamins and good nutrition, so great for the new Year diets ;) but they're also delicious and warming on the cold winter days.


Ingredients:

1kg carrots
a potato or swede or any other root vegetables
a litre of vegetable stock (made with 2 OXO cubes)
1 tbsp dried coriander
2 tbsp ground coriander
1 tsp cumin


Method:

  1. Peel and chop the vegetables into chunks.
  2. Place into a pan with the stock, coriander leaf, ground coriander and cumin.
  3. Pour over the vegetable stock and boil until the vegetables are soft.
  4. Blend til smooth with a hand blender or food processor.

Enjoy on a cold winters day with crusty bread and butter.
