Very tasty. I used just parsnips (from raw) and boiled them for a bit longer in the ham stock.

Delicious made with fresh parsnips and spuds and cooked for slightly longer. Adults and kids ate the lot. Yummy!

I made this with hot curry powder and it had a proper kick to it! It was lovely. However, the recipe quantities only gave me 3 not-very-big bowls of soup. Next time I would double or even treble the quantity. But I would recommend it!

Made this with Christmas leftovers and ham stock - delicious, and always make with left over ham stock now. Sometimes make pancetta wrapped croutons as well if just having soup on its own.

I swapped the parsnips for carrots. Also, I used turkey instead of ham to use up Xmas dinner. It was delicious. I'd also agree that only 750ml of stock is needed so you only need to use one stock cube.
