Lemon and coriander soup is a delicious vegan soup with refreshing flavors of coriander and lemon. A perfect soup that is packed with vitamin c and lots of other nutrients to keep you healthy and warm during the chilled winters.

Lemon Coriander Soup is one of the common dishes in the vegetarian section of any restaurant or party buffet. And you will not believe that in spite of being a vegan soup, lemon coriander soup is packed with flavors and tastes.

So where does the flavor come from?

Coriander stems and a few coriander seeds are the two secret ingredients that add to the flavor of this soup.

Similarly, ingredients like garlic, onion, and carrot all add up to the taste as well as nutrients.

 

Ingredients used in Lemon Coriander Soup

  • Vegetable stock – We start the soup by first preparing a vegetable stock with distinguished flavors of coriander in it.
  • Here we need to wash the coriander stems thoroughly in order to get rid of any sand or mud. Just wash and roughly chop the stems.
  • Coriander seeds
  • Garlic – The quantity of garlic is completely your choice. I like to add lots of garlic in my soup.
  • Onion and carrots are a must in any vegetable stock. You can also add other vegetables like beans, cauliflower, cabbage, etc all in less quantity.
  • Spices – turmeric powder, salt, and pepper. You can also add a bit of soy sauce and green chili sauce to give it a Chinese flavor.
