Ingredients
1lbcarrots approximately 8 - 10, peeled and chopped
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Put all the carrots and potatoes in a large roasting tin. Drizzle with one tablespoon of the olive oil and roast for about 35 - 40 minutes. Remove from oven
In a large stainless steel pot set over medium to high heat, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil and the crushed garlic. Stir for a minute and add the onion. Stir really well and brown the onion for a minute. Reduce heat to medium low and add about 2-3 tablespoons of the stock. Stir well and leave onions to cook and caramelize for about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Add the ground coriander and turmeric to the onions and stir well for a minute. Add the roasted vegetables and the stock. Stir well and bring to a boil for about 2 minutes.
Remove from heat and blend in batches. Return to the pot and season with salt and pepper. Top with fresh coriander leaves and serve.
