I borrowed a cookbook Practical Soups from work. This is one I'm interested in making soon. Although the recipe doesn't mention it, I would finish this with a little cream or yogurt.
Ingredients:
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 tablespoon butter
1 red onion, chopped
3 parsnips, chopped (about 750g total)
2 cloves garlic, crushed
2 teaspoons garam masala
1/2 teaspoon red chili powder
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
850 ml vegetable stock
1 fresh lemon rind, of grated
1 lemon, juice of
salt and pepper
julienned fresh lemon rind, to garnish
Directions:
1. Heat the oil and butter in a large saucepan, add the onion, parsnip and garlic and cook for about 5-7 minutes until the vegetables have softened but not coloured.
2. Add the garam masala and chili and cook for about 30 seconds.
3. Add the flour mixing well and cook stirring constantly for a further 30 seconds.
4. Stir in the stock, lemon juice and rind and bring to the boil.
5. Reduce the heat and simmer for 20 minutes.
6. Remove some of the vegetable pieces and set aside.
7. Puree the remaining soup then return to the saucepan with the reserved vegetables.
8. reheat.
9. Season to taste with salt and pepper and serve with a little of the julienned rind scattered over each serving.
