Recipe Tips
- Want it creamy? Stir in about 150ml of single cream, natural yogurt, crème fraîche, or coconut milk at the end for a creamy texture.
- Add spice: For a curried version, add 1 to 2 tsp of your favorite spices or chopped chili.
- Roast the vegetables: For a more intense flavor, roast the carrots and parsnips for 20 minutes in the oven with a drizzle of oil before adding them to the soup maker.
- Thicker soup: If you prefer a thicker consistency, add more carrots or parsnips, or throw in a medium potato. Just remember to reduce the stock to avoid exceeding the MAX line.
