Potato Cauliflower Parsnip Soup With A Pancetta Potato Hash Recipes

CAULIFLOWER AND PARSNIP HASH BROWNS

Steps:

• Slice the cauliflower lengthwise, about 1/8-inch thick. Save the little cauliflower "crumbs". Thinly slice the parsnips.
• Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. When hot, but not smoking, add the cauliflower slices and parsnip slices, spreading out into a single layer, if possible. Do not stir, but let the vegetables cook, undisturbed, until nicely browned on the bottom, about 3 minutes. Add the salt, reserved cauliflower crumbs, garlic, and red pepper flakes, and give the vegetables a gentle stir. Continue cooking, only stirring once or twice, until the vegetables are cooked through and nicely browned, about 5 minutes more. Serve hot.

CAULIFLOWER POTATO SOUP

Steps:

• Stir cauliflower, potatoes, carrots, and onion flakes together in a pot; add enough water to cover and stir in chicken bouillon cube. Bring to a simmer and cook until cauliflower is tender, about 10 minutes.
• Transfer vegetable mixture and about 1 cup cooking liquid to a slow cooker. Stir cream of chicken soup, milk, cream cheese, and bacon bits into vegetable mixture.
• Cook on Low, stirring occasionally, for 2 1/2 hours.
• Stir parsley into soup and continue cooking until vegetable are tender and flavors blend, 1/2 to 1 1/2 hours. Top with shredded Cheddar cheese.

POTATO CAULIFLOWER SOUP

Steps:

• In a soup pot, heat the oil and sauté the onions, dill and thyme until tender. Add the cauliflower and cook a few minutes. Add the stock and potatoes.
• Cover and cook until tender, about 30 minutes. Remove from heat.
• With a hand blender, puree the soup to your desired consistency. It is nice if you leave a few small chunks. (This step can also be done in batches in the blender if you don't have a hand-held blender.).
• Return the pot to the heat. Simmer on low and add bay leaves, salt, pepper and soy sauce. Adjust to taste. Cook 10 more minutes. Remove bay leaf before serving.

PARSNIP AND CAULIFLOWER SOUP

Steps:

• To a pot add some oil and/or butter ( I used both ), warm up gently and put about 1 to 2 teaspoons of fennel seeds and lightly toast.
• After the seed have been toasted add roughly chopped veg ( peeled parsnips, whole cauliflower with greens and all), mix through and add stock.
• Season with salt and pepper, bring to boil. When vegetables are cooked, blend whole mixture to a smooth consistency.
• Serve with olive oil toasted bread or croutons and sprinkling of chives. For creamier texture you can add some cream. Enjoy

ROASTED CAULIFLOWER AND PANCETTA SOUP

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Arrange cauliflower tightly into a 9x13-inch glass baking dish. Pour melted butter over cauliflower and lightly season with salt and pepper. Place garlic cloves into the cauliflower.
• Roast in the preheated oven until cauliflower is tender and browned, about 30 minutes.
• Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook and stir pancetta in the hot oil until browned and crisp, 5 to 10 minutes. Transfer pancetta to paper towel-lined bowl, reserving pancetta drippings in the skillet.
• Cook and stir onion in the pancetta drippings until tender, about 5 minutes. Mix thyme, rosemary, and turmeric into onion.
• Pour chicken stock over onion mixture and bring to a boil. Add cauliflower and garlic to chicken stock. Reduce heat to medium and simmer soup until cauliflower is very soft, about 15 minutes. Stir pancetta into soup.
• Blend soup using an immersion blender until completely smooth. Stir Cheddar cheese, 1 to 2 tablespoons at a time, into soup until melted.

SPICED PARSNIP & CAULIFLOWER SOUP

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large saucepan and add the vegetables. Cover partially and sweat slowly for 10-15 mins until soft but not brown. In a separate pan, dry-roast the spices with a pinch of salt for a few mins until fragrant. Grind with a pestle and mortar to a fine powder.
• Add the garlic, chilli, ginger and spices to the vegetables, and cook for about 5 mins, stirring regularly. Add the lemon zest and juice. Pour in the stock, topping up if necessary to just cover the veg. Simmer for 25-30 mins until all the vegetables are tender.
• Purée with a blender until smooth. Dilute the consistency with more water if needed, until you get a thick but easily pourable soup. Season generously, stir in the coriander and add more lemon juice to balance the taste. Eat straight away or chill in the fridge to reheat. This also freezes beautifully. Serve with crusty bread, if you like.

CHEESY CAULIFLOWER AND POTATO SOUP

Steps:

• In a large saucepan, combine the vegetables, onion, bouillon and 2 cups water. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 4-6 minutes or until vegetables are tender., Stir in the milk, soup, garlic powder and nutmeg. Combine cornstarch and remaining water until smooth; gradually stir into soup. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until slightly thickened. Stir in cheese until melted.
