CARROT AND CORIANDER SOUP II

Steps:

• Place the carrots, onion, vegetable broth and cilantro into a large saucepan. Bring to a boil, and cook until the carrots are tender, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly.
• Puree the soup until smooth, using a blender or food processor. Reheat before serving if necessary.

CREAMY CORIANDER / CILANTRO SOUP

Steps:

• Simmer the carrot, potato and leek in the broth until soft, roughly 10 minutes.
• To make the béchamel sauce, melt the butter over low heat in a deep saucepan.
• Sprinkle the flour over the butter and whisk until a pale golden color.
• Add the milk and whisk constantly for 10 minutes until the sauce is smooth and creamy.
• Season with the soy sauce and pepper.
• Remove from the heat, whisk in the egg yolks, being careful not to curdle the mixture, which will happen if it's too hot. Cook, stirring constantly, until the sauce thickens.
• In a food processor or blender, puree the carrot, potato and leek mixture with the broth. You'll have to do this in a few batches unless you have a REALLY BIG blender. ;).
• Add the coriander leaves and soy sauce and blend until smooth.
• Add the béchamel sauce and nuts to the food processor or blender and blend/chop. I added the nuts to about 2 cups of fluid so they'd break up easier instead of flying around in a huge sea of soup as far from the evil blades at the bottom as possible. I tricked them! NYA-HA-HAAAAA!
• *ahem* Sorry.
• Pour everything back into the saucepan over low heat and heat through, stirring.
• While still warm, toss in the cheese, stir for one minute and serve.

SPINACH-AND-CILANTRO SOUP WITH TAHINI AND LEMON

Steps:

• First, make the sauce: Combine tahini, lemon juice, garlic, salt, cumin and red-pepper flakes with 2 tablespoons water in a medium bowl. Whisk until smooth, adding more water as needed to achieve a drizzle-able consistency, and set aside.
• Next, make the soup: Add stock to a Dutch oven or heavy pot, and bring to a boil over high heat. Stir in spinach, cilantro, tahini and salt, and return to a boil. Turn off heat, and stir in lemon juice.
• Use an immersion blender to purée soup. Taste, and adjust seasoning with more salt and lemon, if desired.
• Serve soup immediately, and drizzle with tahini sauce. Cover and refrigerate remaining soup and sauce for up to 1 week, or freeze soup for up to 1 month.

CHARRED TOMATO SOUP WITH CORIANDER AND CILANTRO

Steps:

• Prepare a charcoal grill or light the broiler. Remove cores from tomatoes and cut them in half horizontally. Season with salt and pepper on both sides and brush lightly with olive oil.
• Place tomatoes skin-side down on the grill and leave for about 10 minutes, until skins are blackened and tomatoes have softened slightly. (If using the broiler, place the tomatoes on a rimmed baking sheet skin-side up and broil for 10 minutes.) Transfer tomatoes to a large bowl.
• Add garlic, cayenne, coriander seeds, cilantro, 2 tablespoons olive oil and sherry vinegar. Stir all ingredients together. Let mixture sit for 10 minutes to allow flavors to marry.
• Purée tomato mixture with a blender or food processor. Strain through a medium mesh sieve, if desired. Thin with a little water if too thick. Taste and adjust seasoning. Chill well. (The soup will taste best if served within a few hours.)
• Put cherry tomatoes in a small bowl. Sprinkle with salt and toss with a tablespoon of olive oil.
• To serve, ladle the soup into chilled shallow bowls. Put a large spoonful of ricotta on top, and spoon cherry tomatoes over. Sprinkle with chives.
