Roast Parsnip Soup

Roast Parsnip Soup with a good helping of parmesan, a delicious and comforting soup for chilly days. Roasting the parsnips brings out their sweet, nutty flavour that I absolutely love. My roasted parsnip soup is super easy to make, and always a big hit with the whole family.

Ingredients

  • 6 parsnip medium
  • 1 onion medium-sized

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat the oven to 200 degrees C (390 Fahrenheit).
  2. Peel and cut the parsnips into chunks.
  3. Toss the parsnips well with olive oil, and arrange on a baking tray in a single layer.
  4. Roast until tender for about 20-30 minutes.
  5. Cut the onion finely.
  6. In a pan, add the vegetable stock, onion and roasted parsnips and cook for about 15 minutes until the onion is soft.
  7. Season with salt and black pepper, then add the parmesan cheese and milk, and leave to simmer for a further 2 minutes.
  8. Remove from the head and transfer the soup to a blender. Alternatively, use a hand blender to blend to the desired consistency.
  9. Transfer the soup to the pan and leave to bubble away for 1-2 minutes.
  10. Serve with extra parmesan cheese.

Notes

  • You could just boil the parsnips, but roasting them takes this soup to the very next level. They get a lovely caramelized hint which truly transforms the dish.
  • If you don't necessarily want a vegetarian soup, you can also add chicken or beef stock/broth for some extra flavour.
