Part of being vegan is trying to use as local and as seasonal ingredients as possible. This is one of the reasons why I absolutely love this parsnip soup during the winter.
Cheap and easy to make, the flavours of the parsnip and curry blend wonderfully together. Perfect as a starter or as a main dish with some freshly baked croutons to top.
A British classic, best enjoyed when the weather's cold. Using seasonal vegetables, this is the perfect winter soup.

Recipe Notes
Jo's Tips
- Choose between mild, medium or hot curry powder to get a different spice result.
- If you prefer a sweeter flavour, add 1 peeled and cubed sweet potato to the ingredients.
- To avoid oils, dissolve 1 tbsp of cornstarch in 1/2 cup of plant milk and add to the soup 5 minutes before the end.
