INGREDIENTS
1.6lb / 750g Carrot, scrubbed & diced
9oz / 250g Swede/Turnip, peeled & diced (see notes)
6 cups / 1.5 litres Vegetable Stock, or as needed
3 tbsp Butter
3 cloves of Garlic, finely diced
2 ribs of Celery, finely diced
1 large Onion, finely diced
2 tbsp Olive Oil
1 tsp EACH: Cumin, Ground Coriander
Salt & Black Pepper, to taste
Fresh Thyme, Extra Virgin Olive Oil to serve (see notes)
🍴METHOD🍴
Roast: On a large baking tray mix carrot & swede with 2 tbsp olive oil, 1 tsp cumin and ground coriander and a good pinch of salt and pepper. Roast in the oven at 200C/390F for 30mins, or until lightly browned and soft.
Base: In a large pot over medium heat melt in 3 tbsp butter. Add celery, onion & garlic and fry until they begin to soften and brown.
Scrape Tray: Add in roasted carrot/swede and add a splash of hot stock to the pan. Use a plastic spatula/turner to scrape off all the flavour and pour into the pot.
Simmer: Pour in 4 cups/1 litre stock (or enough to cover everything) and bring to a simmer. Pop on the lid and leave simmering on low for as long as you have time for (15mins+).
Blitz: Take off lid and use a hand blender to blitz into a soup, pouring in more stock to thin out to preference.
Serve: Season with a hefty pinch of salt and pepper (season well to bring out the best in this simple soup). Serve individual portions with preferred garnish (see notes).
