Spiced Roasted Carrot & Parsnip Soup
A warming and gently spiced roasted carrot and parsnip soup with curly kale and a coconut and yoghurt topping.
You can’t beat a good homemade soup. Especially during the colder months. I’ve added a touch of spice, in the form of curry powder, to this simple soup to give it a little kick. Plus roasting the veg adds an extra depth of flavour as opposed to boiling.
Start by chopping up your carrots and parsnips and adding them to a baking tray.
Meanwhile, fry your onion in a little oil for about 10 mins, adding the garlic once the onion is translucent. Then, cook for 1 minute and add in the spices.
Now you can get the roasted vegetables out of the oven and add them in to the saucepan with the stock. Next simmer for a few minutes and add in some seasoning.
To top it all off this roasted carrot and parsnip soup is perfect to be enjoyed with some crispy fried oil for added flavour and texture.
Now you can take the soup and either use a hand blender or transfer to a blender to whiz until smooth. The perfect wholesome lunch or dinner to enjoy with a side of homemade bread.
