While talking a stroll through the supermarket near by, I suddenly turn towards my hubby and ask him what kind of soup would he like to eat. I usually get the same answer: “Whatever you think it’s best!” This time, to my surprise, he replied nearly instantly: carrot and coriander soup.

I never had that kind of soup, and the look in my eyes states that I am reluctant when it comes to trying it. Don’t get me wrong, I love carrots, I am like Bugs Bunny, munching down carrots, but a soup… Didn’t sound that appealing.

Oh, how I was wrong! Few ingredients, a little spare time and it’s done!

For about 8 servings:

• 1 kg carrots peeled and sliced
• 2 medium onions, chopped
• 8 garlic cloves, chopped
• 1.5 l vegetable stock
• 2 tsp coriander powder
• 1-2 tsp dry coriander or fresh if you find
• juice from 1 lemon
