Crema of Celery Soup with Coriander

Created by ForeverMama on January 28, 2023

1 head of celery, trimmed
5 garlic cloves, whole
8 cups vegetable stock (can use chicken stock too, but make sure to use a good full bodied stock for either choice)
1 1/2 handfuls rice (any type)
1 cup light cream

Step 1: Chop the celery stalks into pieces. In a large saucepan, bring the stock to the boil, add the celery, garlic, and rice and a little salt and cook for about 30 minutes, until very soft.
Step 2: Drain, reserving the liquid, and pass everything through a food mill or food processor. Add the vegetable puree to the reserved liquid with the cream and coriander seeds and cook for 15 minutes more.
Step 3: Check the salt, add pepper to taste and pour into individual soup bowls. Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of the olive oil over each soup bowl and serve immediately.
