ROASTED ZUCCHINI-CINNAMON SOUP


ROASTED ZUCCHINI-CINNAMON SOUP

This recipe funnily occured some time ago because I did not have one of the ingredients I was used to utilize on it. Those kind of improvisation that not only end up well but also surprise you with an even better recipe as a result…
In a lack of nutmeg the soup was asking for that kind of special touch the spices have, and I thought… why not trying with some cinnamon?!
In arabic and indian cuisine the use of cinnamon is very common in savoury dishes, as well as other spices like cardamom or anise that we are more used to see on sweet dishes. However they provide a delightful and exotic flavour to them. If in addition you cook the zucchinis in the oven it will give a special roasted touch to this recipe. Goes without saying that the smellwhile it is in the oven is wondeful. 
classic among my repertory of soups for the upcoming chilly days. I encourage you to try it, it will surprise you! Here’s the recipe of my roasted zucchini-cinnamon soup for whenever you feel like it😉
