Recipe type: Soup
Serves: 4
Ingredients
  • t tbsp olive oil
  • 1 medium onion
  • 1 leek
  • 4 large parsnips, peeled and chopped
  • 1 tbsp tomato paste
  • 2-3 cups vegetable stock* see notes
  • fresh peppercorns to taste, roughly ground
  • salt to taste
Method
  1. Heat olive in a large pot over medium heat, add the onion and leek, and saute for about 5 minutes until soft and golden
  2. Add the parsnips, tomato paste and stock, and bring the pot to a steady simmer
  3. Cook for about 15-20 minutes until the parsnips are tender and falling apart, then remove from the heat and use a hand blender to achieve your desired soup consistency. I like to keep a few chunks in mine for texture. If you don't have a hand blender, you can use a regular blender or even a potato masher. If your soup looks a little thick, splash in some more stock
  4. Season to taste with salt and some freshly ground peppercorns
  5. Pour into bowls and enjoy!
