Celeriac Soup with Coriander and Chilli image

I created this for a contest for a British cooking magazine. It's a spicy soup with a Middle Eastern flavour, great for warming your belly when the cold weather rolls in. You could also substitute a root vegetable like turnip for the celeriac.

Time 30m

Yield 3-4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 medium onion, finely chopped
1 red chile, finely chopped (I leave half the seeds in but you can remove them all if you prefer)
2 -3 cloves garlic, finely chopped
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon cumin
1 1/2 lbs celeriac, peeled,trimmed and cut into cubes
3 cups chicken broth
1 cup water
1/4 cup fresh coriander, chopped
1/3 cup whole milk
salt & freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • In a large saucepan, sauté the onion, chilli and garlic in the olive oil for 2-3 minutes over a medium high heat.
  • Stir in the cumin and season with salt and pepper.
  • Add the celeriac, along with the chicken broth and water.
  • Bring up to a boil, then reduce the heat, cover the pan and let simmer for 10-15 minutes or just until the celeriac is cooked.
  • Remove from the heat and use a handblender or food processor to puree the soup until smooth.
  • Stir in most of the chopped coriander and milk.
  • Adjust the seasoning with more salt and pepper, if needed.
  • Ladle into bowls, sprinkle over a few coriander leaves and serve immediately.

This soup is also a great make-ahead meal. I made it a few days ahead of time and it reheated perfectly.

The coriander and chilli gave the soup a really nice flavor. I would definitely recommend using fresh herbs and spices if you have them.
