Fresh in taste but still warming the soul – parsnip pumpkin soup with peppermint – the weekly special published in the Chef’s Handyman food blog
Chef’s Handyman Parsnip Pumpkin Soup with Peppermint
Fresh in taste but still warming the soul, the right office lunch for busy days! I prefer a short lunch break during the week. Heavy meals make me tired and crowded restaurants are annoying. That’s why I like to bring my own lunch. I know what’s in and I can decide how big the portion should be.
The fragrance of the fresh peppermint leaves and the juicy taste of the lemon rind do twist the peatiness of the parsnip. A very welcome combination for a short lunch break! Have a try!
Chef’s Handyman tip: Parsnip pumpkin soup with peppermint leaves
To make the soup, peel the parsnip and the pumpkin and cut the pieces into cubes. Chop the onions and glaze them. Add 16 fl. oz. of vegetable stock and then add the cubes. Simmer them on low heat for 15 minutes or until cooked through. Blend them. Add coconut milk. Season the soup to taste with salt and black pepper.
Pour the soup in bowls or glasses. Decorate with peppermint leaves, lemon rind and horseradish.
Shopping list for 4 serves:
Vegetables: 4-5 parsnips, 300 g or 10 oz. of pumpkin, 1 onion
Fruits: 1 lemon, organic
Vegetable Stock: 5 dl or 16 fl. oz.
Spices: Salt, black pepper
Milk: 2 dl or 7 fl. oz. coconut milk
Herbs: Peppermint
Oil: 1-3 tbsp. olive oil
Have a great weekend, yours Chef’s Handyman team!
