Parsnip soup

Recommended Posts

Last night, whilst visiting my mum & dad - they had a fruit & veg man call. He comes weekly now & it's like a night market. It's fabulous! He also sells milk, fresh herbs & free range eggs. I bought all sorts. I bought some lovely parsnips & tonight I'm making this as I write.

Here is my recipe.

2 Parsnips (weighing 200 g ish in total.)

1 small onion

1 small potato (about the size of a large egg)

3 garlic cloves

1 heaped tsp garam masala

500 ml stock either veg or chicken.

1 dsp olive oil

1 dsp cream (optional)

 

Method

 

1. Heat the oil

2. Finely chop the onion and garlic, and fry them gently for 5 minutes

3. Roughly chop the parsnips and potato and add to the pan for 5 minutes

4. Add the stock and garam masala

5. Simmer for about 10 - 15 minutes...depending on how old the parsnips are.

6. Blitz the soup with a hand blender

7.Season to taste.

8. Serve and optionally add a dash of cream

 

I often do stage 5 in the pressure cooker for 5 mins.

 

You can add more garam masala or less, according to your taste.

 

You can also add grated ginger and chili if you like it really zingy. Amounts according to taste.

 

A lovely winter warmer.
