Butternut Squash And Parsnip Soup Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Pour chicken broth into a large stockpot over medium-high heat; add squash, celery, apples, leek, garlic, allspice, and thyme. Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook until the vegetables are completely tender, about 30 minutes.
• While the vegetables simmer, put parsnips into a large bowl. Pour coconut oil over the parsnips and toss to coat. Spread parsnips onto a baking sheet.
• Roast parsnips until tender and browned, about 30 minutes; add to soup.
• Ladle vegetables and liquid into a blender in batches so the blender bowl is no more than half full. Hold lid in place with a towel and pulse blender a few times before leaving on to blend; puree until smooth. Repeat until all soup is pureed.
• Pour pureed soup into the pot, stir half-and-half into the soup, and cook until hot, about 5 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 200C/400F/Gas 6.
• Place the butternut squash and parsnips onto a baking tray and drizzle with the honey and olive oil.
• Place in the oven to roast for 30-40 minutes, or until tender.
• Then heat a frying pan until hot and add the onion and garlic and fry for 1-2 minutes until the onions become translucent.
• Add the butternut squash, parsnips, chilli and spices to the onions and garlic and stir the ingredients until everything is pretty much coated with the spices.
• Now add the coconut milk and stir gently over a low-medium heat, being careful not to burn the mixture, for 3-4 minutes.
• Transfer this mixture to a food processor and blend to a smooth consistency.
• Now add the stock to the food processor and blend more.
• Finally transfer the soup to a saucepan, heat through and season, to taste, with salt and black pepper.
• To serve, ladle the soup into serving bowls and place a spoonful of creme fraiche on the top. This is also nice with fresh bread roll on the side.

Steps:

• Butter 11x7x2-inch glass baking dish. Combine kabocha and butternut squash and parsnips in large bowl. Melt butter in small saucepan over medium heat. Whisk in next 5 ingredients. Add to squash mixture and toss to coat. Transfer mixture to prepared baking dish. DO AHEAD: Can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and chill. Bring to room temperature before continuing.
• Preheat oven to 375°F. Cover squash mixture with foil. Bake covered 40 minutes. Uncover; bake until all vegetables are tender, about 20 minutes longer. Sprinkle with almonds and bake 10 minutes.

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a deep pan. Add the parsnips, squash and tikka spices. Grind in some black pepper. Bring up to simmering point.
• Cover with a lid and leave to simmer gently for about 10 minutes, until beginning to soften. Stir occasionally.
• Add the stock and the tomato puree. Bring to the boil and simmer gently, covered with a lid, until the vegetables are soft - approx 10 minutes.
• Leave to cool a bit. Then puree in a liquidizer or with a hand blender. Add the rest of the water as desired to obtain your preferred consistency.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F. Butter large roasting pan with 1 tablespoon butter. Arrange squash pieces, skin side up, in prepared roasting pan. Add parsnips and 1/4 cup water to pan. Cover pan with foil; bake until vegetables are very tender, about 50 minutes. Cool vegetables.
• Meanwhile, melt remaining 2 tablespoons butter in heavy large skillet over medium-low heat. Add onion and thyme; sauté until onion is tender and golden, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat.
• Scrape squash pulp into processor (discard peels); add parsnips and onion mixture. Puree until smooth. Mix in broth. Transfer mixture to heavy large saucepan. Whisk in half and half. Bring to simmer. Season with salt and pepper. (Can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate. Rewarm before serving.)

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees, with racks in upper and lower thirds. Scoop seeds and pulp from squash; discard. (Or lightly coat seeds in oil, season with salt, and roast on a rimmed baking sheet until crisp and darkened slightly, about 20 minutes; let cool and reserve for garnish.) On a rimmed baking sheet, rub squash halves with 1 tablespoon oil and season with salt; turn cut-sides down. On another rimmed baking sheet, toss parsnips and leeks with remaining 1 tablespoon oil, season with salt, and sprinkle evenly with thyme and chopped sage; spread in a single layer.
• Roast 30 minutes. Add apples to sheet with squash, cut-sides up. Continue roasting until vegetables turn golden brown in places and are easily pierced with the tip of a knife, 15 to 20 minutes more. When cool enough to handle, scoop flesh from squash; transfer half to a blender with half of other vegetables and apples, 2 cups broth, and 1 cup water. Puree until smooth, adding more water as needed if too thick to self-level. Pour through a sieve into a pot. Repeat process with remaining vegetables, apples, broth, and 1 more cup water.
• Melt butter in a small saucepan over medium heat, swirling occasionally, until fragrant and golden brown and dark-brown sediment particles form in bottom of pan, 8 to 10 minutes. Stir brown butter into soup; season with salt and pepper. Rewarm soup over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally and adding more water as necessary until it reaches desired consistency.
• Wipe pan clean. Heat 1/4 inch of oil over medium-high. When it shimmers, add a handful of sage leaves; cook, stirring a few times, until darkened slightly, 20 to 30 seconds. Transfer to paper towels, season with salt, and let stand until cool and crisp, 2 to 3 minutes. Fry more sage as desired. Serve soup topped with crisped sage, pepitas, sesame seeds, poppy seeds, and a drizzle of oil.

Steps:

• Peel the squash, parsnips, sweet potato, celery root, carrot, onion and red pepper cut into one inch pieces.
• Place vegetable and whole garlic cloves in a roasting pan, toss in olive oil to coat and season to taste with salt and pepper. Roast vegetables in oven for 30 to 40 minute until golden brown.
• Remove from oven and add to large pot along with 3 L of chicken stock. Bring to a boil, then simmer over medium-low heat for one hour.
• Puree soup in blender or with hand-held blender until smooth. Add cumin, coriander, cinnamon and nutmeg. Simmer 15 minutes and then strain through sieve. For richer soup add 1 cup of whipping cream.
• Return soup to boil before serving.

Steps:

• Heat oil over high heat. Add onion, squash and parsnip. Cook until vegetables are golden.
• Add 2 cans of chicken broth and 2 cans of water (use the empty cans from chicken broth). Bring to boil. Simmer 30 minutes.
• Add apples. Simmer 20 minutes, or until vegetables and fruit are tender.
• Puree, add milk and heat the soup until very warm.
• Enjoy!
