Fresh Coriander Soup Sopa De Coentro Recipes

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large pot over moderate heat and saute the onion and garlic until tender but not brown.
• Add the stock, potatoes, salt, pepper, and cayenne and cook until the potatoes are tender, 20 to 30 minutes.
• Puree in an electric blender or food processor or press through a fine-mesh strained if desired.
• Serve hot or cold, adding the coriander immediately before serving.

Steps:

• In a large heavy saucepan, sauté the onions and garlic in 3 tablespoons of olive oil for about five minutes.
• Add the remaining tablespoon of oil and the potatoes and stir fry for another minute.
• Add the broth, cover and simmer for about 45 minutes or until the potatoes are mushy.
• Remove from the heat and puree the soup, using an immersion blender.
• Now stir in salt and pepper and the coriander (cilantro), cover, and refrigerate for 24 hours.
• After 24 hours, the soup is ready to be served cold, or, once you have gently heated it over moderate heat, it can be served hot.

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:

• Peel the cucumbers and chop them coarsely. Chop the scallions.
• Place the cucumbers, scallions and coriander leaves in a blender and process until finely pureed. You may need two shifts. The soup can also be prepared using a food processor but the texture will not be as fine.
• Transfer to a bowl and stir in the yogurt. Add the lime juice. Season with cumin, just a dash of salt and pepper to taste. Chill until ready to serve and stir before serving. Garnish each serving with a thin slice of cucumber topped with a sprig of coriander.

Steps:

• Fry onions with pepper and garam masala.
• Boil carrots separately until soft,drain carrots and return to pot.
• Add stock and onion mixture, let it cool, then blend with a handmixer or blender.
• Add fresh chopped coriander and serve with naan bread on the side.
