ADAPT March recipe

Yes, we know we are a nearly week into April, but there's been a lot happening recently.

500ml chicken or vegetable stock
1 onion and I celery
58 grams (2oz) butter
Salt, pepper and curry powder

Method
1 Heat the butter in saucepan and sauté the onion and celery for about 10 minutes over a lowish heat until they are softened.
2 Add the parsnips and stock, bring to the boil, cover and simmer for about 15 minutes until the parsnips are very soft
3 Place the contents in a blender season with salt, pepper and curry powder to taste
