Hot Senegalese Soup With Coriander

Courses: Soup
Serves: 4 people

Recipe Ingredients

4 cups  Chicken broth
1   Skinless boneless chicken breast - (abt 10 oz)
2   Onions - chopped
1 1/2 cups  Chopped celery
1/4 cup  Vegetable oil
2 tablespoons  Curry powder
2 teaspoons  Turmeric
1   Cayenne pepper - or to taste
1/4 cup  Bottled mango chutney
1/4 cup  Minced fresh coriander - plus 4 sprigs
  For garnish

Recipe Instructions

In a small saucepan bring the chicken broth to a boil and in it poach the chicken at a bare simmer, covered, for 8 minutes, or until it is springy to the touch and just cooked through.

While the chicken is poaching, in a saucepan cook the onion and the celery in the oil over moderately-low heat, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are softened, stir in the curry powder, the turmeric, and the cayenne, and cook the mixture, stirring for 2 minutes.

Transfer the chicken to a work surface, reserving the broth, and chop it. Add the reserved broth to the vegetable mixture, bring the mixture to a boil, stirring, and simmer it for 5 minutes.

In a blender or food processor puree the mixture with the chutney and 1/2 the chicken until the puree is very smooth. Transfer the puree back to the saucepan, stir in the remaining chicken and just heat through. Stir in the minced coriander, and divide the soup between bowls. Garnish each serving with a coriander sprig.

This recipe yields 4 servings.
