Background

We associate carrot soup with Spring and Easter, but we should have it all year round, as it’s a "superfood", full of immune-boosting nutrients. During the winter season add some spices, such as ginger, cinnamon, star anise and you get a tasty, seasonal dish. This spiced carrot and green pea soup is a good example. Serve it with wholesome bread.

Ingredients

1 onion
2 cloves of garlic
3cm piece of ginger
4 large carrots (about 500g)
1 large potato
1 tsp ground cumin
½ tsp turmeric
750 ml vegetable stock (approx.)
2 cups green peas (about 400g)
1 handful fresh coriander leaves
Lemon juice

Instructions

Finely chop the onion, ginger and garlic. Roughly chop the carrots and potato.
Heat the oil in a large saucepan and gently fry the onion for 5 minutes, then add the garlic and ginger and stir for a minute.
Add the carrot and potato pieces, then the cumin powder and turmeric.
Stir for a minute, then add the stock and bring to the boil.
Gently simmer for 25 minutes, until tender, then add half of the green peas.
Cook for another 5 minutes, add the fresh herbs and blitz with a hand-held blender until you get a creamy, smooth or textured soup.
Add the remaining peas, bring to the boil and cook for a couple of minutes. Add more stock if it's too thick.
Serve warm.
