Curried carrot, pepper and celeriac soup
Background
This slimming curried carrot, pepper and celeriac soup is easy to make. It's delicious & filling yet low in calories so it's perfect for those who are on a diet or looking after their health. I made it with my own homemade curry powder but you can use a ready mixed one, as hot as you like!
Ingredients
- 2 medium carrots
- 1 small onion
- 1 stem of celery
- 1 clove of garlic
- ½ red bell pepper (capsicum)
- ½ medium celeriac
- 2 tsp curry powder
- 500 ml vegetable stock
- 1 chilli pepper ( optional)
- 1 handful of coriander or mint
- juice of ½ lemon or lime
Instructions
- Finely chop the onion, garlic, carrots, celery, pepper and chilli (if used).
- Heat about 1 Tbsp of oil in a saucepan and gently cook the chopped vegetables until the onion is transparent and the carrot & pepper are tender.This should take about 8-10 minutes. Add the curry powder, stir for 30 seconds or so,
- While the vegetables are sautéed, peel the celeriac and cut it into small cubes. Add these to the curried vegetables, stir through, then then pour in the stock. Bring to the boil, then cook under cover for about 20 minutes until the vegetables are tender.
- Turn off the heat, add the mint and lemon juice.
- Blend the soup until you get a silky, smooth texture.
