Ingredients

  • 1 T sunflower oil
  • 1 large leek, sliced
  • 2 celery stalks, chopped
  • 4 c diced sweet potato
  • 1 1/2 c diced parsnips
  • 3 3/4 c vegetable stock
  • salt and fresh ground pepper
  • 1/4 lb bacon, cooked and chopped (optional)

Garnish (optional)

  • 1 T chopped fresh parsley
  • roasted strips of sweet potatoes and parsnips

Preparation

Heat the oil in a large saucepan. Add the leek, celery, sweet potatoes, and parsnips and cook slowly for about 5 minutes, stirring to prevent them browning or sticking to the pan.

Stir in the vegetable stock and bring to a boil. Lower the heat, cover and simmer for about 25 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender, stirring occasionally. Season to taste. Remove the pan from the heat and let the soup cool slightly.

Puree the soup in a blender, food processor, or with an immersion blender until smooth.

Return the soup to the rinsed pan and reheat slowly. Ladle into warm soup bowls to serve and sprinkle with the chopped parsley, roasted strips of sweet potato, parsnips, and bacon (if using).
