Recipe 38: Carrot & Coriander Soup (Σούπα Καρότου & Κολίανδρου)



Another easy, quick and tasty soup for those cold March evenings.

Ingredients (serves 4):
25gr butter
1 medium onion, finely chopped
1 garlic clove, crushed
450gr carrots, roughly chopped
150gr carrots, coarsely grated

1 tbsp chopped fresh coriander
150ml single cream (you can use natural yogurt, if you prefer)
salt and pepper to taste

To garnish:
150ml yogurt
2 tbsp chopped fresh coriander

1) Melt the butter and cook the onion and garlic gently until soft, in a covered saucepan, without colouring.


2) Add the roughly chopped carrots, vegetable stock, and nutmeg. Cover, bring to the boil and simmer gently until the vegetables are tender.



3) Cool a little, then puree the soup.


4) Stir in the grated carrots, coriander and cream. Taste for seasoning.



5) Serve garnished with a swirl of yogurt and a sprinkling of chopped fresh coriander.
