    A fabulous warming and tasty soup. Quick and easy to prepare too. I followed the recipe and added the cream too - perfect!!

    Was so lovely!! Very sweet, would add slightly less apple if looking for a less sweet taste - didn't add the cream as didn't feel it was necessary :) also not confident those quantities would stretch to serving 5 people. Wonderful recipe, thank you!

    Delicious soup! It had a beautiful flavour and I didn't add cream as didn't feel it particularly needed it. Very popular with family and friends and I've had several requests for the recipe.

    Delish, I added crème fraiche instead of cream. Very moreish. I would never of put parsnips and apples together, but it was stunning.
