Directions
Christmas Clementine, Carrot and Coriander Soup W/ Citrus Twists, This is not just for Christmas, but I always associate clementines with Christmas, and the addition of spices also lends a festive feel to this delightful soup It is so easy to make and makes an elegant and colourful soup starter for any formal or special dinner The smell is redolent of Christmas pasts for me – plus, the vibrant colours just leap out of the bowls! Serve it with an assortment of interesting little dinner rolls and maybe some citrus flavoured butter I have suggested 4 to 6 clementines – they vary so much in size – we like this with a real citrus tang to it, but please adjust the quantities of the clementines to suit your personal tastes One final tip – do try to use the crushed coriander seeds rather then the ground coriander, they add a complex and interesting flavour to the soup, as well as a wonderful fragrance!, This soup is stunning The taste is amazing Thank you so much for posting this , Not your typical carrot soup, for sure! Loved the citrus notes combined with the earthiness of the coriander and cumin Have to admit I didn’t bother with the twists, and I didn’t have rice flour so used regular flour instead Other than that, I followed the recipe exactly, even to the crushing of the coriander seed It was well worth the effort — we have left-overs plus the better part of a box of clementine oranges to eat up!
