Carrot Coriander Soup Recipes

Steps:

• Place the carrots, onion, vegetable broth and cilantro into a large saucepan. Bring to a boil, and cook until the carrots are tender, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly.
• Puree the soup until smooth, using a blender or food processor. Reheat before serving if necessary.

Steps:

• Heat 1 tbsp vegetable oil in a large pan, add 1 chopped onion, then fry for 5 mins until softened.
• Stir in 1 tsp ground coriander and 1 chopped potato, then cook for 1 min.
• Add the 450g peeled and chopped carrots and 1.2l vegetable or chicken stock, bring to the boil, then reduce the heat.
• Cover and cook for 20 mins until the carrots are tender.
• Tip into a food processor with a handful of coriander then blitz until smooth (you may need to do this in two batches). Return to pan, taste, add salt if necessary, then reheat to serve.

Steps:

• Cut the carrots into sticks and place on a baking tray, coat with the olive oil and honey. Place in the oven at 180 degrees for around 20-25 mins until just starting to go brown.
• In a large casserole dish fry the onion, ginger and garlic in a small amount of oil or butter for around 5 mins until the onion has caramelised. Add the cumin and chilli and fry for another minute.
• Put the carrots, onion mix and coriander into a blender along with around a glass of water. (If you have a hand held blender this step can be done in the casserole dish). Blend untill smooth.
• Add the stock cube into the casserole dish and enough boiling water to cover the bottom. Mix the stock cube in whilst scrapping the caramelisation off the bottom from the onion.
• Return the puréed carrots to the casserole dish and mix, add boiling water until the soup is your desired consistency. (for me around a litre).
• Add salt and pepper to taste.

Steps:

• Spray a large non-stick saucepan with oil and place over a medium heat. Add the onion and fry for 4-5 minutes until softened.
• Add the ground spices and garlic and continue to stir-fry for 1-2 minutes.
• Add the carrots and 3.5 cups of water.
• Bring to the boil, cover and then simmer gently for 25-30 minutes or until the carrots are tender.
• Season well, allow to cool slightly then place in a food processor and blend until smooth.
• Return the soup to the saucepan and reheat gently. Ladle into four warmed bowls, stir in the chopped cilantro and serve.

Steps:

• Heat oil or butter in a pan large enough to hold all the ingredients.
• Add carrots and onion. Stir well. Cover and cook for about 5 minutes.
• Add crushed coriander seeds, ground coriander and mace. Cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly.
• Add 6 cups of vegetable stock, and all other ingredients except the additional stock, and the cream and cilantro. Bring to a boil, then simmer for 30-40 minutes or until carrots and barley are tender.
• Whiz the soup in a food processor (you'll probably need to do this in at least two batches), and return to cooking pan.
• Stir in the last 2-4 cups of vegetable stock (depending on how thin a soup you want) and the cream, if used.
• Heat through, but do not boil.
• Serve, garnished generously with chopped cilantro.

Steps:

• Melt butter in large saucepan and saute carrots and celery for 2 minutes.
• Add coriander and cumin, fry for 3-4 minutes.
• Add stock, pinch of salt and pepper, bring to the boil and then simmer for 30 minutes.
• Put through blender.
