Time 25m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 pound parsnips
6 tablespoons butter
1 large onion, finely chopped
2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
1/3 cup flour
2 teaspoons curry powder
4 1/2 cups chicken stock
Salt to taste
Freshly ground black pepper to taste
Milk or cream, as needed
2 scallions

Steps:

  • Scrape the parsnips, and cut crosswise into small round slices. Heat the butter in a large saucepan, and add the parsnips, onion and garlic. Saute over gentle heat 5 minutes.
  • Stir in the flour and curry powder, and cook 1 minute before adding the stock, a little at a time. Bring slowly to a boil, stirring all the while, and simmer 15 minutes or until parsnips are tender.
  • Puree the soup in a food processor or blender, and place the resulting liquid in a clean saucepan. Season to taste with salt and pepper, and add a little milk or cream if the consistency is too thick. Reheat gently. Chop scallions and sprinkle over the soup before serving.
