Total time:
1 hour 5 minutes
Serves:
 4

Ingredients

  • 3 Garlic cloves, crushed
  • 3 tsp Coriander seeds
  • 1 tsp White mustard seeds
  • 1 tsp Curry powder
  • ½ tsp Cinnamon
  • 1kg Carrots, sliced
  • 1.5 litres Chicken stock
  • 1 tbsp Lime juice
  • 2 tbsp Extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 Onions, chopped
  • 1½ tsp Ground ginger

Method

  1. Heat a large pan over a medium-high heat and add the oil. Add the onions and cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the ginger, garlic and spices; stir for a further 2 minutes or until fragrant. Add the carrots and stock and bring to the boil.
