Instructions

 

• Preheat the oven to 200°C.
• Heat the oil in a heavy-based saucepan over a medium heat. Add the garlic and parsnips and fry for 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until coloured. Add the chilli and fry for 1 minute.
• Pour in the stock, stir and bring to a simmer. Cook with the lid on for 12-15 minutes, or until the parsnips are tender.
• Meanwhile, for the croûtons, put the bread on a baking tray in a single layer and drizzle with the oil. Sprinkle over the cheese, if using, and season with salt and pepper. Bake for 5-10 minutes, or until crisp and golden.
• Remove the soup from the heat and blitz with a stick blender until smooth. Return to the heat, stir in the cream and heat through.
• Season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve the soup topped with the croûtons and a sprinkling of chilli flakes if you wish.
