Halloween – Carrot, Parsnip & Pumpkin Soup

A quick and easy spooky soup

What you need

Ingredients:

1 Pack of Mash Direct Carrot & Parsnip Mash
1 Medium Onion (Diced)
2 Sticks of Celery (Chopped)
2 Tsp Fresh Ginger (Finely Chopped)
3 Cloves Garlic (Minced)
2 Cans Vegetable or Chicken Broth
1 Pumpkin (Peeled, deseeded, diced )
1 Cup of Water (More if needed)
1/4 Tsp Dried Thyme
1/4 Tsp Ground Cumin
Salt & Pepper to taste
Heavy/whipping Cream or Fat Free Sour Cream

Recipe method

Sauté the onion and celery in a large pot on medium heat for 5-7 minutes.

Add the ginger and garlic to the pot, stir, and cook for 2 minutes until fragrant. Add the Carrot & Parsnip mash, vegetable broth, pumpkin, water, dried thyme, cumin, and salt & pepper to taste.

With the lid slightly ajar, simmer the soup on medium-low heat for about 30 minutes or until the vegetables have softened.

Let the soup cool slightly, then purée in batches using your blender. If the soup is too thick, you can add water to thin it out a bit.

Serve with a swirl of Fat Free Sour Cream if desired. For Halloween, we created a Spider Web design on our soup using a wooden kebab skewer.
