Instructions:

In a medium soup pot, sauté the onions and celery in a little broth or water. When the onions are translucent, add the chilli, turmeric and ground coriander. Sauté for a minute, stirring to prevent the spices from burning. Add the water or stock, soya milk, salt, carrot and potato. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, cover and simmer for 10 minutes. Add the pepper, tomato and coconut extract. Simmer gently for another 10 minutes or until the vegetables are tender. Then add the lemon or lime juice and cilantro.
