Method
- Preheat the oven to gas 7, 220°C, fan 200°C. Put the carrots and swede on a large baking tray with ½ tbsp oil, the ground coriander and turmeric. Toss to coat, then roast for 20 mins, turning halfway.
- Meanwhile, heat 1 tbsp oil in a large pan over a medium heat. Fry the onion and celery for 10 mins, stirring occasionally, until softened. Add the ginger and 2 of the crushed garlic cloves; fry for 1 min.
- Transfer the carrots and swede to the pan and pour in the stock. Bring to the boil, then simmer for 15 mins until the veg is tender.
- Use a stick blender to blitz until smooth, then season to taste; keep warm over a low heat.
- For the chimichurri, mix the coriander, parsley, chilli and remaining garlic with the vinegar and remaining oil.
- Divide the soup between between bowls and top top each with 1 tbsp chimichurri.
