Hunky Chunky Vegetable Soup

Hunky Chunky Vegetable Soup

 INGREDIENTS: 
1 parsnip 
1 carrot 
1 sweet potato 
1 leek 
1 courgette 
1 vegetable stock cube 
1 tbsp vegetable oil 
Crushed black pepper 


HOW TO MAKE: Remove the top and tail from the parsnip, carrot, sweet potato, leek and courgette and peel and chop into small chunks. Prepare the stock by dissolving the stock cube in 600 ml (1 pint) of boiling water. In a large saucepan, heat the oil and add all the vegetables. Gently sweat the vegetables in the pan for 15 minutes and then add the stock and seasoning, bring to the boil and simmer for 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and divide the soup roughly in half. Blend one half of the soup (hand or jug), then combine the smooth soup with the chunky soup to create something smooth and creamy, so you can really get your teeth into.
