Instructions:
- Wash the coriander leaves thoroughly under cold water and pat them dry with a clean towel.
- Peel and finely chop the onion.
- Peel and roughly chop the garlic cloves.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat.
- Add the chopped onion to the pan and sauté for about 5-7 minutes until the onion becomes translucent and tender.

- Carefully transfer the soup to a blender or use an immersion blender directly in the pan.
- Add the 1/4 cup of coriander leaves to the soup.
- Blend the mixture until smooth and creamy. If you prefer a chunkier consistency, blend less.
- Taste the soup and season with salt and pepper if needed. You can add more broth if the soup is too thick for your liking.
- Ladle the hot soup into bowls.
- Garnish with a few whole coriander leaves or a drizzle of olive oil if desired.
- Serve immediately with crusty bread or a side salad.
Tips:
- For a creamier texture, blend the soup until smooth and strain if desired.
- Add a dollop of plain yogurt or a splash of coconut milk for added richness.
- Garnish with fresh coriander leaves and a sprinkle of black pepper for an extra touch of flavor.
