Roasted Parsnip, Carrot and Garlic Soup
This week #SundaySupper is all about root vegetables and is hosted by Cindy of Cindy's Recipes and Writings. Roasted Parsnip, Carrot and Garlic Soup sounded perfect for this occasion! It was delicious, too! If your not familiar with parsnips, they have a sweet, nutty taste that's hard to describe, but not hard to eat. They resemble other root vegetables like potatoes and carrots in that when cooked they have the same texture. making them perfect for this soup. As for the garlic, unless this is your first time reading anything from me, you knew I was going to put garlic in it! Garlic is a food group, after all.
Following the Roasted Parsnip, Carrot and Garlic Soup recipe is the list of all the great root vegetable recipes shared today, so you can enjoy them many different ways!
Roasted Parsnip, Carrot and Garlic Soup
Ingredients
- 3 pounds parsnips, peeled and chopped into 2 inch pieces
- 2 pounds carrots, peeled and chopped into 2 inch pieces
- 4 cloves garlic peeled
- 2 tablespoons light tasting olive oil
- 8 cups vegetable broth (I recommend a non-tomato based one), or 4 cups vegetable broth plus 4 cups water
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Toss the chopped parsnips and carrots with the olive oil and spread out on a large baking sheet. Bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes or so, until soft. Add the garlic after 25 minutes, stirring to coat with the oil. If the vegetables start to brown to quickly before softening turn the oven down to 350 degrees F.
- Once the vegetables are softened, transfer to a large pot. Pour the vegetable broth over the vegetables. Puree with an immersion blender until smooth. Alternately, working in batches, puree in a blender, then transfer to a large pot.
- Heat over medium-high heat until simmering. Serve hot.
