CREAMY CURRIED ROOT VEGETABLE SOUP



Creamy Curried Root Vegetable Soup image

This is a hearty, thick soup with a little bit of heat from the curry. I've used this combination of vegetables a few times with great success, but using earthy tubers, taproots, and alliums is the key, so try different things. For this recipe, you'll need a large skillet or wok, a medium saucepan, and a food processor or blender. I enjoy spicy foods, so you may want to reduce pepper and curry amounts. I used half milk and half cream once and got a very nice creamy soup, but some may prefer the thinner consistency of using only milk. This recipe can be adjusted for vegan palettes by using an olive oil substitute for the butter, coconut or soy milk, and an anchovy-free Worcestershire sauce. Balsamic vinegar can do in a pinch.

2 tablespoons butter
6 Hakurei turnips, chopped

Nestle the bay leaves and herb bundle into the vegetables, partially cover and cook until softened, stirring occasionally, 10 minutes. Pour in the wine and reduce until almost evaporated. Then add the stock, bring to a boil and then turn down to a simmer. Meanwhile, melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium to medium-high heat, and then whisk in the flour 1 minute. Whisk in the milk and season with salt, pepper and nutmeg. Cook until the sauce thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon. Pour the thickened milk mixture into the simmering vegetable soup, stir to combine and simmer a couple of minutes. For the cheesy croutons: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Heat the butter and oil in a large skillet over medium to medium-high heat. Stir in the garlic 1 minute, and then add the bread and toast until golden, stirring occasionally. Transfer to baking sheet and dress with the cheese. Bake to set the cheese and further dry out the croutons, 10 to 12 minutes.

3 Tbsp butter, unsalted
4 oz cream cheese, room temperature
2 c milk
3 c chicken stock
1 bay leaf
kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 400-degree. Heat two large baking sheets in the oven with 1 tablespoon chicken fat on each one. Spread the sliced mushrooms on one in an even layer ( don't add salt until they are cooked). Spread the onion, carrot and celery in an even layer on the other one. Season with salt, pepper and thyme. Roast vegetables until golden brown and liquid has evaporated from mushrooms - about 35 minutes. Give the vegetables a stir once or twice during cooking.
  • 2. In a large pot melt the butter over medium heat. Add the flour and cook for about a minute. Whisk in cream cheese, milk, chicken drippings and chicken stock. Add the cooked vegetables, roasted chicken, bay leaf, salt and pepper. Simmer over low heat for 30 minutes, stirring often.
  • 3. This recipe is a great way to use leftover roasted chicken. To save time, I roast the vegetables at the same time I roast the chicken. The next day, the soup comes together fairly quickly.

Time 1h50m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/2 lb center-cut bacon, cut into 1-inch pieces
1/2 cup onion, diced
1 1/2 cups green cabbage, shredded
1/2 cup red bell pepper, diced
1/2 teaspoon black pepper, fresh ground
4 cups vegetable broth, see note below
2 cups potatoes, diced
1 cup carrot, sliced thin
2 teaspoons fresh basil, finely snipped

Steps:

  • Fry bacon until crispy around the edges. Drain on paper towels and set aside. Reserve 1 tsp of the bacon fat, and use to saute the onion, shredded cabbage, bell peppers, and black pepper. Cook until vegetables are tender and lightly caramelized.
  • In a large saucepan, bring broth to a boil. Add the sauteed onion, cabbage and bell pepper mixture, along with the potatoes and carrots. Reduce heat, and simmer until the vegetables are tender, about 30 minutes. Remove from heat.
  • Using a slotted spoon, remove about 1 cup of cooked vegetables and set aside.
  • Use a stick blender (or a food processor) to blend the remaining mixture until smooth.
  • Stir the reserved cooked vegetables, basil and cooked bacon into the puree. (You may wish to save a bit of bacon for garnish) Simmer over low heat for 20 minutes.
  • Garnish with reserved cooked bacon, if desired.
  • Note: Depending on the variety of potato you use, you may need to add additional broth to thin the soup.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of vegetables: The more vegetables you use, the more flavorful your soup will be. Some good options include carrots, celery, onions, potatoes, peas, and corn.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment with different herbs and spices: A little bit of garlic, thyme, or rosemary can go a long way in adding flavor to your soup.
  • Use a good quality vegetable broth: The broth is the base of your soup, so it's important to use a good one. Look for a broth that is low in sodium and made with real vegetables.
  • Cook the vegetables until they are tender: This will help to bring out their flavor and make them easier to digest.
  • Don't overcook the vegetables: If you cook them for too long, they will become mushy and lose their flavor.
  • Add some cream or milk to make the soup creamy: This is optional, but it can help to make the soup richer and more satisfying.
  • Serve the soup with a side of bread or crackers: This will help to soak up the broth and make the meal more filling.

Conclusion:

Creamy vegetable soup is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a cold winter day and dinner. It's also a great way to get your daily dose of vegetables. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a delicious and satisfying soup that the whole family will love.
