Autumn brings with it this craving for comforting foods!Foods that simmer on the stove tops or in the oven, foods that develop those lovely flavors that warms you up,foods like soups, stews and warm desserts!I have a soup for you that not only warms you up, but is rich in anti-oxidants and beta carotene!
My Carrot and Coriander Soup is the most satisfying, flavorful, extremely easy to make and so vibrant!Its reminiscent of the time when were in England.Its easily available in all the supermarkets over there and when I couldn’t find it here in America I started making my own!Its earthy, sweet, a little spicy, a perfect autumn food~
