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!

- Bring to the boil and then cover the pan and simmer for 15 to 20 minutes.
- Add the ground rice, clementine juice and zest - stirring well, and continue to simmer for a further 30 minutes.
- Remove from the heat and allow to cool slightly, then liquidise in a food processor or with an immersion blender. Adjust the consistency by adding extra clementine juice or stock if the soup is too thick.
- Return the soup to the pan and reheat for 5 minutes or until piping hot but NOT boiling; remove from the heat and season with salt and pepper to taste.

Tips:
- Choose ripe and flavorful clementines. The sweetness of the clementines will balance the bitterness of the carrots and coriander.
- Roast the carrots before adding them to the soup. Roasting the carrots will caramelize their natural sugars and give the soup a deeper flavor.
- Don't be afraid to adjust the amount of spices to your taste. If you like a spicy soup, add more coriander and cayenne pepper. If you prefer a milder soup, reduce the amount of spices.
- Serve the soup with a dollop of yogurt or sour cream. This will add a creamy richness to the soup and help to balance the flavors.
- Garnish the soup with fresh coriander leaves and a twist of clementine zest. This will add a pop of color and freshness to the soup.
