CARROT AND CORIANDER SOUP

Carrot and coriander soup has always been one of my favourites- it’s a fuss-free and easy soup to make, it’s suitable for the whole family (my fussy children will eat it!), and it’s also a great cheap soup to make in bulk. Carrots are one of the cheapest vegetables to buy from the supermarket and with just a few little additions make a delicious, rich and creamy soup that is also healthy and low in fat.

I don’t worry about peeling the carrots for this, as it’s going to be blended anyway, just give them a wash and top and tail them.

This is a very easy one to make Slimming World friendly as there really isn’t a need for oil or butter- it’s perfectly delicious without! I add the potato for a little creaminess in the finished product.

Ingredients

  • 1 medium potato peeled and diced

  • 1 litre vegetable stock I use Marigold Suisse Bouillon, available from most supermarkets and health food shops
  • 1/2 pack fresh coriander approx 15g roughly chopped
  • salt & pepper
  • low-calorie cooking spray

Instructions

  • Spray a large pan with low calorie cooking spray and gently cook the onion for 5 minutes, until softened.
  • Add the carrots and potato, and gently cook for another 10 minutes, stirring every couple of minutes to prevent sticking
  • Sprinkle in the ground coriander, and stir fry for 2 minutes.
  • Add in the vegetable stock, pop on a lid, and simmer gently on a low heat for 30 minutes
  • Add in the fresh coriander, and then using a hand blender, blend everything into a smooth soup, and season to taste with salt and pepper
