Carrot, Lime and Coriander soup

Posted on 19/09/16

British Food Fortnight has begun & we’ve created a deliciously British carrot soup just for you!! British carrots can be brought throughout the UK nearly all year round, with the carrot season starting in the middle of June and ending in May.

At Seasoned we love to cook with seasonal and local produce from the UK and nearly all produce used on our courses are locally sourced or supplied from local producers and business. We’ve created this extremely colourful deliciously fresh carrot, lime and coriander soup. It’s super quick and easy, and can be created in around 30 minutes.
