This is a tasty and grounding soup that we serve up after a Healing Meditation.
It assists with the integration and a good sleep by restoring valuable nutrients and trace minerals back into the body.
Here we go…
Ingredients:
- Leek (1) or Eschallot (Spring Onion) bulbs (1 bunch)
- Seeds – (whole) Mustard, Coriander, Cumin
- Coconut Oil (organic)
- Potatoes
- Sweet Potatoes
- Carrots
- Swedes
- Parsnips
- Pumpkin
- Himilayan Salt or Celtic Sea Salt
- organic corn kernels
Notes: coconut cream, garlic, tomatoes and red chilli paste have been removed from the recipe as these were causing acidity and food tolerance issues for some people.
A great addition to the recipe is organic corn kernels!
Method:
Chop leeks.
Put soup pot on heat, add coconut oil to cover the bottom.
Add chopped leeks and stir into the hot coconut oil
Add mustard, coriander and cumin seeds and stir in.
Put the pot lid on to keep the juices sweating.
After a couple of minutes, stir the Leeks till they are turning clear and brown (caramelising)
Add a 1/2 cup of boiled water to take up the juices, add a tspn of ground Rock Salt.
This is your stock… put the lid back on, and lower the heat.
(Check every few minutes to make sure it is not catching on the bottom, add more boiled water as needed).
Now add the cut root veges in any order, and cover to two thirds with boiled water.
Stir all ingredients in.
Put lid back on pot and adjust heat to gentle boil.
Check every few minutes to stir and make sure it is not catching on the bottom.
Add more water to reach desired consistency.
That is it… add more Himalayan Salt to taste
Serve with toasted Slow Ferment Bread and/or Organic Corn Chips.
Enjoy!
