Instructions
1
Place a large, lidded pan over a low heat. Add the onion, celery and parsnips with 5 tbsp water and season. Cover with a piece of greaseproof paper and the pan lid and sweat for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally so the vegetables don’t stick.
2
Stir in the garlic, turmeric, ginger and garam masala. Re-cover with the greaseproof paper and lid and sweat for a further 5 minutes or until the vegetables have softened.
3
Discard the greaseproof paper. Pour in the hot stock, cover and bring to the boil. Reduce the heat and simmer for 10 minutes. Ladle the soup into a blender – you may need to do this in batches – and blitz until smooth. Season to taste.
4
Ladle the soup into 4 warm serving bowls. Scatter each bowl with 10g vegetable crisps and some fresh coriander, to serve.
