FRESH CORIANDER SOUP (SOPA DE COENTRO)
I know there are those who say they don't like cilantro or coriander or Chinese parsley. I am not one of those people and this soup is so delicious and comforting when served hot in cold weather, and soothing when served cold in hot weather. It's another Portuguese recipe adapted from Jean Anderson's Foods of Portugal. This is very easy to make but it requires a good 24 hours in the fridge, so plan accordingly.

Steps:
- In a large heavy saucepan, sauté the onions and garlic in 3 tablespoons of olive oil for about five minutes.
- Add the remaining tablespoon of oil and the potatoes and stir fry for another minute.
- Add the broth, cover and simmer for about 45 minutes or until the potatoes are mushy.
- Remove from the heat and puree the soup, using an immersion blender.
- Now stir in salt and pepper and the coriander (cilantro), cover, and refrigerate for 24 hours.
- After 24 hours, the soup is ready to be served cold, or, once you have gently heated it over moderate heat, it can be served hot.

[email protected]Easy to make and packed with flavor! I used vegetable broth instead of chicken broth and it was still delicious. The coriander really shines through.

[email protected]This soup was a delightful surprise! The combination of fresh coriander, lime, and coconut milk created a vibrant and flavorful broth. I added some grilled shrimp for extra protein and it turned out fantastic. Highly recommend!
