Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.
Add the chopped onion, celery, and garlic. Sauté for about 5 minutes until the onion is translucent and fragrant.
Stir in the ground coriander and cook for an additional minute to release the aroma.
Add the chopped carrots and the vegetable broth to the pot.
Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for about 20 minutes, or until the carrots are tender.
Remove the pot from heat and let it cool slightly.
Using a hand blender, carefully blend the soup until smooth. Alternatively, transfer the soup in batches to a countertop blender and blend until smooth.
Return the soup to the pot (if using a countertop blender) and stir in the fresh coriander, salt, black pepper, and lemon juice.
Taste and adjust the seasoning if necessary.
Reheat gently if needed before serving.
Serve hot, garnished with a few sprigs of fresh coriander.
