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.

- Season with salt and black pepper, then add the parmesan cheese and milk, and leave to simmer for a further 2 minutes.

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.
