Skip the faff by using a food processor to blitz up the vegetables into tiny pieces and not peeling the carrots, you can make this Creamy Carrot and Coriander soup in half the time of a traditional recipe!

Growing up, there was always Carrot and Coriander soup in our fridge because it was my Mum's favourite. She had a pretty high-powered corporate job, so it was usually shop bought like this one from Convent Garden.

But making it at home is easy, much cheaper and you get multiple portions that you can freeze for later. It's luxury in a bowl and packed with goodness!
Why Make THIS Carrot and Coriander Soup?
The joy of this particular Carrot and Coriander Soup is that it requires minimal hands-on prep.
All you need to do is chop the ends off the carrots (no need to peel!) and blitz them up in the blender to achieve the perfect consistency for cooking! Just ensure your carrots have been washed beforehand...
You're potentially using the blender at the end anyway, so you may as well utilise it to reduce the requirement for chopping. Just give it a rinse after chopping and you're good to go!
It's quick, easy and the perfect cosy comfort meal if you've got a glut of carrots needing used up.
Ingredients for Carrots and Coriander Soup

- Vegetables and Herbs: Carrots, Onion, Garlic, Fresh and Dried Coriander
- Butter: I prefer to use Salted Butter, and I always add a little oil to the pan too as this stops the butter from burning. Use more oil if not using butter.
- Double Cream: this transforms it into the ultimate Creamy Carrot and Coriander soup, which is extra tasty! But feel free to leave it out if preferred.
- Vegetable Stock
How To Make Creamy Carrot and Coriander Soup
Melt butter in large soup pot and prepare all vegetables. Add carrot, onion and garlic to a blender and blitz until they are chopped into small pieces.


To the pot with melted butter, add the blended vegetable mix, dried coriander and vegetable stock - cook for 30 minutes on medium/high heat.


Add double cream then blend the soup up with the fresh coriander (either in a blender or using a hand blender) until smooth.



Portion up as required. I served mine with a garnish of air fried carrot strips, some more fresh coriander and black pepper.

Garnish For Carrot and Coriander Soup
I'm not peeling the carrots in this recipe, as it minimises food waste. As long as your carrots are clean (and since we're blending the soup), there is no need to do it. However, if you want to make a garnish for the carrot and coriander soup using what is available to you then do the following:
- peel a couple of the carrots
- toss the peelings through some olive oil and salt and oven bake at 200C for 18-20 minutes or airfry at 180C for 8-10 minutes
- portion out the soup and when serving top with some of the crispy carrot peelings, fresh coriander, olive oil and freshly cracked black pepper
