Moroccan Roasted Vegetable Soup Recipes

ROASTED MOROCCAN-STYLE VEGETABLES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Spray two rimmed baking sheets with nonstick cooking spray.
• Whisk together 3 tablespoons of the oil, lemon juice, garlic, 2 teaspoons salt, coriander, cinnamon, cumin and ginger in a large bowl. Add the onions, eggplant, sweet potatoes and tomatoes and toss well to fully coat the vegetables. Divide among the prepared baking sheets and arrange in a single layer. Roast until the sweet potatoes and eggplant are lightly browned and fully softened, 50 to 55 minutes, rotating trays and switching from top to bottom halfway through.
• Transfer the vegetables to a large bowl. Toss with the apricots, cilantro and remaining 2 tablespoons of oil. Season to taste with salt.

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Tip all the vegetables and the garlic into a roasting tin.

Purée the soup in a food processor, or in the pan with a hand blender, until smooth, then ladle into a flask for work.
