Carrot & coriander soup

I love love love soups on a cold winter’s day. I make random concoctions based on what’s in the fridge but sometimes, just sometimes it works out.

This is one of hubby’s favourites. Always good if you have some left over coriander from a curry the night before.

Ingredients:

Bunch of carrots, as fresh as you can find. Best just out of the ground! I just scrub, don’t peel. So much flavour and goodness in the skins of veg.

One onion, skinned, roughly chopped

One large potato, scrubbed, roughly chopped

One veggie stock cube

Small bunch of coriander

Method:

Place all of the carrots, potato and onion into a large saucepan with the stock cube, and just cover with water. Bring to the boil and then simmer until everything is softened, around 15 minutes.

Ladel into a blender and whizz with the coriander until completely smooth.

Season to taste.

Serve immediately with fresh farmhouse bread!
