INSTRUCTIONS
(from Recipes for an Ecological Kitchen by Lorna Sass. pressure cooker: 6 min high pressure std stovetop: 25 min Combine all ingredients except the coriander in the cooker. Lock the lid into place. Over high heat bring to high pressure. Lower the heat just enough to maintain the pressure at high and cook for 6 minutes. Reduce the pressure with a quick-release method. Remove the lid, tilting away from you to allow any steam to escape. (or simmer 25 min on stovetop until tender-soft) Puree the soup in two batches in a blender (for a smoother texture), food mill, or food processor, adding salt to taste. Return to the pot to rewarm and serve with a garnish of fresh coriander. (I found that this soup was much improved by adding a few tablespoons of fresh lemon juice--it counteracts the sweetness nicely.)
