Chorizo And Parsnip Soup Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Toss parsnips and onion with 2 tablespoons oil. Season with salt. Spread in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet. Roast 15 minutes. Flip; roast until golden brown and tender, about 20 minutes more.
• Meanwhile, in a small skillet over medium-high, heat remaining 1 tablespoon oil. Add chorizo and cook, turning, until crisp and golden, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer to a small plate. Reduce heat to medium and add sliced garlic; cook until just golden, 30 seconds to 1 minute. Transfer to plate with chorizo; reserve oil in skillet.
• Transfer roasted vegetables to a medium saucepan; add broth, 1/2 cup water, and minced garlic. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer and cook, partially covered, until vegetables are very soft, about 10 minutes. Working in batches, blend until smooth (if necessary, thin with up to 1/4 cup water total). Season with salt and pepper. Just before serving, heat soup through in saucepan over medium-high. Serve, topping each bowl with a few pieces of chorizo and cooked garlic, a spoonful of caper tapenade, and a drizzle of reserved chorizo oil.

Steps:

• Fry the chorizo for a couple minutes in a frying pan.
• Drain off any fat and put the chorizo on a paper towel to drain off more fat on the surface of the meat.
• Put the onions into the pan and fry for a couple minutes until soft.
• In a large saucepan, combine the lentils, onions, parsnips, vegetable stock and chilli flakes.
• Simmer for 15-20 minutes until the parsnips and lentils are soft.
• Meanwhile, chop the chorizo into small pieces.
• Puree the soup with a hand blender.
• Stir in the chorizo and top with the yogurt and coriander mixed together if you like.

Steps:

• Place the water, celery, chorizo and chickpeas in a 4- or 5-qt. slow cooker. Cook, covered, on low until beans are tender, 8-10 hours. Stir in tomatoes, pasta and salt; cook, covered, on high until pasta is tender, 15-20 minutes longer., Freeze option: Freeze cooled soup in freezer containers. To use, partially thaw in refrigerator overnight. Heat through in a saucepan, stirring occasionally; add water if necessary.
