Parsnip Lemon And Ginger Soup Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oil over medium-high heat in a large, deep saute pan until shimmering.
• Add parsnips, then onion; saute, stirring very little at first, then more frequently, until vegetables start to turn golden brown, 7 to 8 minutes.
• Reduce heat to low and add butter, sugar and garlic; continue cooking until all vegetables are a rich spotty caramel color, about 10 minutes longer.
• Add ginger, cardamom, allspice and cayenne pepper; continue to saute until fragrant, 30 seconds to 1 minute longer.
• Add broth; bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to low and simmer, partially covered, until parsnips are tender, about 10 minutes.
• Using an immersion blender or traditional blender, puree until very smooth, 30 seconds to 1 minute. (If using a traditional blender, vent it either by removing the lid's pop-out center or by lifting one edge of the lid. Drape the blender canister with a kitchen towel. To 'clean' the canister, pour in a little half-and-half, blend briefly, then add to the soup.)
• Return to pan (or a soup pot); add enough half-and-half so the mixture is souplike, yet thick enough to float garnish. Taste, and add salt and pepper if needed. Heat through, ladle into bowls, garnish and serve.

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a large saucepan then add the chopped onions.
• cook for 5 mins stirring occasionally then add the parsnips, lemon peel and ginger and cook for a further 5 mins.
• pour on the stock and with the pan half covered with the pan lid, simmer until the parsnips are very soft.
• Cool a little and liquidise, adjust for seasoning with lemon juice and salt and freshly ground black pepper. Serve hot garnished with fresh parsley.

Steps:

• In a large pot, melt butter and saute onion until translucent.
• Add water, parsnips, can vegetable bullion cubes and bring to a boil.
• Lower heat to medium low and cook until parsnips are tender (about 30-40 minutes).
• Puree in a blender or food processor.
• Add ginger, salt, and milk to the blender. Puree until smooth.
• Return to pot. Add coconut milk and warm to serve.

Steps:

• In a soup pot (one with a lid) over medium temperature, melt together the oil and butter, then saute the onions until soft, about 5 to 7 minutes.
• Add parsnips and ginger and saute for 5 minutes.
• Add the orange rind (not the juice, just yet) and chicken stock, cover, and simmer over medium heat for 30-35 minutes, removing lid for last 10 minutes.
• Let cool slightly, then pour into a blender and liquidize.
• Return soup to pot, stir in the reserved orange juice, and reheat.
• Season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve with a swirl of cream and chopped parsley.

Steps:

• Leeks have a good amount of sand trapped between the layers in both the white and green parts. Be sure to soak, rinse and clean well so as not to spoil the final results.
• Add olive oil, sliced leeks and ginger to a large sauce pan over medium heat. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes until the leeks begin to soften and the ginger becomes fragrant.
• Peel and slice the parsnips into 1/4 inch thick disks. If the vegetables are large, cut in half lengthwise before slicing. Add the sliced parsnips to the pot and cook an additional 7 to 8 minutes. Should the pan get dry, add 2 to 3 tablespoons of the vegetable broth to keep the pan from scorching.
• Add the vegetable broth and bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer and add the white wine. Cook for 20 minutes uncovered. When done the vegetables should be soft and tender.
• Place the soup in a food processor or blender and blend until smooth. (I use an immersion blender for this step.) Season with white pepper and salt to taste.
• Ladle into bowls and garnish with a small dollop of yogurt (or for a more elegant presentation you can thin the yogurt and make swirls or a web pattern) and a small sprinkle of smoked paprika.

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add onion and sautee until tender (about 10 minutes).

• Add spices and stir to coat.
• Add carrots, parsnips, and broth and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until carrots and parsnips are tender (about 30 minutes).
• Puree mixture in a blender or food processor.
• Return to saucepan and slowly stir in coconut milk over medium heat.
• Add lemon juice, salt, and pepper to taste.
