Lazy Sunday Carrot and Coriander Soup

We're having a lazy Sunday afternoon watching the Grand Prix, Golf, Football and any other sport Hubby can find before having Sunday Lunch at the Pub!  So, I retreated earlier to the kitchen and knocked up some Carrot and Coriander Soup in my amazing soup maker which my lovely Mum bought me a while ago from her favourite shop QVC.  That's tomorrow's Lunch sorted out then.



Ingredients
1 large knob of butter
1 onion, chopped
450g carrots, peeled and sliced
1 medium sized potato, peeled and diced
1 garlic clove, crushed
1teasp, ground coriander
800mls vegetable stock
3 tbsp fresh coriander, chopped
A squeeze of lemon juice.

Method
Brown the onions and garlic in a frying pan
Place all the ingredients on the soup maker and select the smooth programme
Once the programme has finished taste for seasoning and pour into a bowl and style it up with a swirl of cream and some coriander leaves.
OR
If I were using a saucepan rather than a soup maker I would brown the onions and then add all the other ingredients to the pan and bring to a gentle simmer until the vegetables are soft.  Then blitz with a stick blender until smooth.
