Ingredients
- 1 pinch Black Pepper
- 100 ml Full Fat Milk
- 500 ml Hot Water
- 200 g Low Fat Butter
- 1 pinch Nutmeg freshly grated
- 500 g Parsnips peeled and cut into small cubes
- 1 pinch Salt
- 50 g SuperValu Goodness Flaked Almonds
- 100 ml SuperValu Light Cream
- 100 g SuperValu Parmesan Cheese Shavings
Method
1. Melt the butter in a pot set over a low heat, then add the parsnips and let them cook for a few minutes to catch a little colour. Pour in the hot water, milk and cream and season with salt, pepper and a little freshly grated nutmeg. Cook until the parsnips are completely softened, then blitz until smooth with a hand-held blender. Stir in the grated Parmesan until it melts.
2. Meanwhile, toast the flaked almonds in a hot dry pan for a few minutes, until they turn golden. Tip out onto a plate and set aside.
3. Serve the soup piping hot in warmed soup bowls. Garnish with the toasted flaked almonds.
