Ingredients
 

Also:

  • 4 medium sized Tomatoes, fully ripe
  • 2 small Chillies, green
  • 25 g Ginger, fresh or frozen
  • 2 Kaffir lime leaves, fresh or frozen
  • 500 g Coconut water
  • 14 g Chicken or vegetable broth, Kraft bouillon
  • 1 tbsp Rice wine vinegar, mild (e.g. from Narcissus)
  • 2 Pinch n Black pepper from the mill
  • 1 pinch Nutmeg, freshly grated
  • 2 tsp Oregano
  • 2 tbsp Sesame oil, light
  • 4 tbsp Celery leaves, fresh or frozen
  • 5 tbsp Coconut milk, creamy (24% fat)

For gratinating:

  • 2 Discs Toast, white
  • 6 Discs Emmental, nutty

To garnish:

  • 6 Discs Flowers and leaves

Instructions
 

Here we go:

  • Wash the carrot, cap at both ends and peel. Using a coarse rasp, scrape off the appropriate amount from below. Wash the tomatoes, remove the stem, cut in half lengthways and remove the green stem. Halve the halves lengthways and crossways. Wash the small, green chillies, cut across into thin rings, leave the grains in place and discard the stalks. Cut the fresh, washed and peeled ginger crosswise into thin slices. Weigh and thaw frozen goods. Wash the kaffir lime leaves and use them whole.

Be cool!

  • Put all the ingredients in a sufficiently large saucepan and simmer with the lid on for 25 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool down a little.

Meanwhile, don't keep your cell phone busy:

  • In the meantime, toast the toast until light brown and top with the Emmental. Preheat the oven to 220 degrees top heat.

Dance in the Blender - off to the wedding:

  • Remove the kaffir lime leaves. Put the soup in the blender and purée finely on the highest setting for 1 minute. Put the puree back in the saucepan. Add the sesame oil, 2 tablespoons of the celery and 3 tablespoons of the coconut milk, stir in and bring to the boil briefly. Season the soup with salt and pepper.

The couples walk to the altar:

  • Distribute the soup on the serving bowls, garnish with the remaining celery leaves and coconut milk.

The soup gets its blessing:

  • Place the toast on top.

And then it gets down to business:

  • Bake until the cheese has light brown spots. Remove from the oven immediately, garnish and serve hot.
