The 4 “C” Soup

Because winter isn’t over yet, because we need color, because we want vitamins, because we want tasty food. And because it’s different!!

Here is the famous 4 “C” soup, by Casserole&Chocolat ! Carrot, Coconut milk, Curry and Coriander!

So as far as colors are concerned, we are all set!! This shiny orange will bring energy on your table. A few leaves of fresh coriander, and you’ll have green too!! Don’t you worry… you are on a food blog and not a “painting for dummies” one!! 😉

Regarding vitamins, carrots are a pretty good choice, don’t you agree ? And it remains a super healthy recipe for a light dinner. Or a starter with, as shown here, Parmesan cheese tiles. This 4 “C” soup will also be a great element for your aperitif table, in little jars. Shall I go on?? 🙂

And finally, taste will be great!! Do not hesitate to spread with sunflower seeds onyour soup bowl. It’s a great combo. And as always, I buy my spices from Albert Ménès, for a perfect balance of tastes!

Aww … I forgot… It’s super easy to cook!!! Happiness in a bowl…

Shall we? The recipe, Chef!

    C’était excellent ! J’ai juste ajouté une gousse d’ail pour le goût et une poignée de lentilles corail pour le velouté.
    Merci pour cette très bonne recette !
