About this Simple Vegan Carrot Coriander Soup recipe
We love the classic combination of carrot and coriander. There is nothing quite like a warm bowl of soup on cold winter days just like Air fryer carrot soup, Curried butternut squash soup and Vegan Cauliflower soup. Its comforting and an easy meal to make, especially when you’re short on time. Did I tell you, this delightful Vegan Carrot Coriander soup recipe comes from my neighbour, Pat, who prepared it for us a few times several years ago. Pat also thoughtfully hand-wrote this recipe, along with one for her Cauliflower cheese, a firm family favourite now. Since then, I prepare this fresh Carrot and Corander soup regularly. We enjoy it for lunch / dinner, often paired with grilled cheese sandwich, eggless soda bread or eggless dinner rolls.
