Spinach and Coconut soup

Sunday, October 9, 2011

This is heavenly, simple, nutritous and filling.  I have a glut of spinach and chard at the moment and so this was the perfect soup for a cold and misty kifufu lunch!

2 onions-finely chopped
olive oil/or coconut oil
2 garlic cloves-crushed
1 dried chilli-seeds removed if prefered-chopped
pinch of ground cummin
roughlt 400 gms spinach, washed and roughly chopped
1 ltr veg stock-hot
75 grms creamed coconut-grated
sea salt and freshly ground pepper

Cook the onions in the oil in a large saucepan over a medium heat for 10 minutes, until soft but not browned.  Add the garlic, chilli, and cummin and cook for a few more minutes.

Add the spinach, stock and coconut, cover and cook for about 10 minutes.

Blend and check the seasoning.  Simple!
