Curried root vegetables soup
Background
This curried root vegetables soup is vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free, nut-free and low-cal. Most importantly for those who are into food combining, it's made with "neutral" root vegetables that can be served with either starch (bread, rice etc) or protein (sausage, fish etc). I make it regularly and freeze several portions for my detox days.
Ingredients
- 1 onion
- 1 clove of garlic
- 2 carrots
- 1 small swede
- Β½ celeriac
- 2 small parsnips
- 1 small turnip
- 1 Tbsp tomato paste
- 1 tsp ground coriander
- 1 tsp ground cumin
- Β½ tsp ground turmeric
- Β½ tsp ground ginger
- ΒΌ tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/ 2 tsp chilli powder
- 1 litre vegetable stock (approx.)
- 1 bunch of fresh coriander
- Lime to serve
- Oil to cook
Instructions
- Peel all vegetables and chop them roughly.
- Measure out the spices into a small bowl.
- Heat 1 Tbsp of coconut or vegetable oil and gently sautΓ© the onion and garlic for 5 minutes. Add the chopped veggies and stir for a couple of minutes then add the spices. Stir for a minute until fragrant, then add the tomato purΓ©e. Stir to coat the veggies well, then add enough stock to cover the vegetables. Bring to the boil, cover, turn down the heat and gently simmer for 20-30 minutes until tender.
- Add the fresh coriander and using a stick blender, process until you get a smooth soup. Add more stock if you find the soup too thick.
- Serve with lime wedges.
