Categories     Light meals & snacks

Yield Serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 17

2 tbsp olive oil
1 onion, roughly chopped
2 cloves garlic, thickly sliced
1kg/2lb 2oz parsnips, peeled, cut into chunks
3 sprigs fresh thyme
3 tbsp honey
1-2 tsp hot curry powder
salt and freshly ground black pepper
1.5litres/2½pints chicken stock (vegetarians may substitute vegetable stock)
450ml/16fl oz double cream
oil, for deep-frying
½ parsnip, peeled
½ beetroot, peeled
½ turnip, peeled
½ carrot, peeled
250ml/9fl oz double cream
½ lemon, juice only

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 200C/180C Fan/Gas 6.
  • Place all the soup ingredients with the exception of the stock and cream into a roasting tray. Mix well and season with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Place into the oven to roast for 25-30 minutes, until golden and tender.
  • Place all but 250ml/9fl oz of the chicken stock into a saucepan over a high heat. Add the cream and, once boiling, reduce the heat to simmer.
  • Add the roasted parsnips and continue to simmer.
  • Pour the remaining stock into the roasting tray and place over a high heat. Stir well, scraping at the browned bits on the base of the roasting tray to release all of the flavour, then add this sauce to the simmering soup.
  • Remove from the heat and allow to cool slightly, then transfer into a food processor and blend until smooth. Return the soup to the pan and season, to taste, with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
  • Meanwhile, for the vegetable chips, preheat a deep-fat fryer to 190C/375F. (CAUTION: hot oil can be dangerous. Do not leave unattended.)
  • Using a potato peeler, peel long strips of each of the vegetables. Carefully add the vegetable strips into the oil and fry until golden. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on kitchen paper.
  • To serve, place the cream into a bowl and whip lightly until soft peaks form when the whisk is removed. Add the lemon juice and fold into the cream.
  • Serve the soup in a bowl with a dollop of cream in the centre and a small pile of vegetable crisps placed over the top.

CURRIED PARSNIP SOUP (FROM GOOD HOUSEKEEPING)



Curried Parsnip Soup (From Good Housekeeping) image

This is my favourite parsnip soup - beats any I've had in restaurants, but also very, very easy to make I've given the full recipe as found in my old Good housekeeping book, but personally usually make it with half the butter (or a tablespoon of oil) and no cream - it's just as tasty. I only make the 'full fat' version on special occasions. (If you use 1 tbsp oil and omit the cream and use 3 veg stock cubes made up to 2 pints of stock rather than chicken stock, then by my calculation each serving is worth 125 calories and 3g of fat) And it freezes well.

CURRIED PARSNIP SOUP



Curried Parsnip Soup image

Adapted from the Bon Appetit Cookbook, by way of the Baltimore Sun, a delicious mild curry soup which takes full advantage of the natural sweetness of the parsnip.

Provided by Chef Kate

Categories     Vegetable

Time 40m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 1/2 tablespoons butter
1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil
1 lb parsnip, peeled, sliced
1 cup chopped onion
1 garlic clove, chopped
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons curry powder
4 cups chicken broth (or vegetable broth)
1/2 cup whipping cream
salt and pepper
chopped fresh chives or green onion

Steps:

  • Melt butter and oil in a heavy, large saucepan over low heat. Add parsnips, onion and garlic. Cover and cook until vegetables begin to soften but not color, stirring occasionally, about 10 minutes.
  • Mix in flour and curry powder; stir 2 minutes. Gradually mix in broth. Increase heat to medium, cover and simmer until parsnips are tender, about 15 minutes. Cool slightly.
  • Working in batches, puree soup in blender or food processor until smooth. Return soup to same saucepan. Stir in cream and bring to simmer. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
  • Ladle into bowls, garnish with chives or green onions and serve.

Tips:

- Choose the right parsnips: Look for firm, unblemished parsnips with a sweet aroma. Avoid any that are soft or have dark spots. - Don't overcook the parsnips: They should be tender but still have a slight bite to them. Overcooking will make them mushy. - Use a good quality curry paste: This is the key to a flavorful soup. Look for a paste that is made with fresh ingredients and has a good balance of spices. - Don't be afraid to adjust the spices: If you like a spicier soup, add more curry paste or a pinch of cayenne pepper. If you prefer a milder soup, reduce the amount of curry paste or omit it altogether. - Serve with your favorite toppings: Some popular options include chopped cilantro, plain yogurt, and toasted almonds.

Conclusion:

Curried parsnip soup is a delicious and comforting soup that is perfect for a cold winter day. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With its creamy texture, sweet parsnip flavor, and warming spices, this soup is sure to be a hit with the whole family. So next time you're looking for a new soup recipe to try, give this one a try.
