Ingredients
  

  • 1 tbsp. olive oil
  • 1 onion chopped
  • 2 tsp. minced gingerroot
  • 1 tsp. curry paste
  • 3 cups chopped parsnips about 1 lb
  • 1 apple peeled and chopped
  • 1 baking potato peeled and diced
  • 1/4 to 1/2 tsp. salt adjust to taste
  • Dash of pepper

  • 2 tbsp whole wheat flour
  • 2 cups unsweetened almond milk or regular milk
  • 2 tbsp. freshly squeezed lime juice
  • Chopped fresh parsley

Instructions

  • In a large pot, heat oil over medium heat. Sauté onion for 3 minutes or until starting to soften. Add ginger and curry paste. Sauté for about 2 more minutes or until onions are softened. Stir in parsnips, apples, potato, broth and a 1/4 tsp each salt and pepper. Cover and bring to a boil over high heat.
  • Reduce heat to medium-low, cover and boil gently, stirring occasionally, for 10 minutes or until vegetables are soft.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk flour into milk and stir into pot. Use an immersion blender in the pot or transfer soup to a blender or food processor, in batches, and purée until smooth.
  • Return to pot, if necessary. Heat over medium heat, stirring often, for about 5 minutes or until slightly thickened. Drizzle in lime juice while stirring. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Ladle soup into bowls and garnish with parsley and almonds.
