CREAMY POTATO, CARROT, AND LEEK SOUP



Creamy Potato, Carrot, and Leek Soup image

Ever since a trip to Ireland in 2001 I have wanted to recreate a leek soup I enjoyed in a small village restaurant. This is what I came up with and even my husband thinks I nailed it. My kids will eat this because it is smooth and they are not turned off by any particular ingredient.

ROASTED CARROT, PARSNIP AND POTATO SOUP



Roasted Carrot, Parsnip and Potato Soup image

This is a creamy, comforting winter soup that is incredibly simple to make. All you need to do is blend together broth and roasted vegetables and heat through. You can make the soup with other roasted vegetables as well, but I love the sweet combination of the carrots and parsnips. If you've got roasted vegetables on hand, you'll need about 4 cups.

Provided by Martha Rose Shulman

Categories     dinner, lunch, appetizer, main course

Time 1h

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 1/2 pounds carrots, peeled and cut in 3/4 inch pieces
1/2 pound (2 large) parsnips, peeled, quartered, cored and cut in 3/4 inch pieces
1 medium or large red onion, cut in large dice
1 medium (about 6 ounces) Yukon gold potato, quartered
2 garlic cloves, in the skin
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
Salt and freshly ground pepper
6 cups chicken or vegetable stock or broth
Chopped fresh herbs, such as parsley, thyme, tarragon or chives, for garnish
Crème fraîche or yogurt for garnish (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Line a sheet pan or a baking dish with parchment or foil. Toss vegetables, including garlic cloves, with olive oil and salt and pepper to taste. Spread in baking dish or on sheet pan in an even layer and place in oven. Set timer for 20 minutes.
  • After 20 minutes, stir vegetables and turn heat down to 400 degrees. Roast for another 20 to 30 minutes (or longer; I have found every oven I've used to be different, thus the range), or until very tender and caramelized on the edges, stirring every 10 minutes. Remove from the heat. You should have about 4 cups roasted vegetables.
  • Hold garlic cloves with a towel so that you don't burn your fingers. Squeeze out the pulp into a blender. Add half the vegetables and 2 cups of the stock. Cover the top of the blender with a towel pulled down tight, rather than airtight with the lid, because hot mixture will jump and push the top off if the blender is closed airtight. Blend until smooth and transfer to a soup pot. Repeat with the second half of the roasted vegetables. Transfer to the pot and whisk in remaining broth. Season to taste with salt and pepper and heat through. Serve each bowl with a sprinkle of chopped fresh herbs and if you wish, a swirl of crème fraîche or yogurt.

MY SPICED BUTTERNUT SQUASH, SWEET POTATO, CARROT AND ORANGE SOUP



My Spiced Butternut Squash, Sweet Potato, Carrot and Orange Soup image

This was inspired by my other butternut squash soup recipe (#402703). The orange flavoring is optional. I use pre-cut, cubed squash when I can find it or frozen squash. You can also use a small fresh butternut squash. (The prep time assumes you are using pre-cut or frozen squash.) I use almond milk in this recipe (I like Almond Breeze) instead of cream or half and half. You can save a little time by roughly chopping the onion and garlic, because the soup will be pureed later. I do chop the ginger rather finely because it is so fibrous, and I don't want lumps in the soup that didn't get pureed.

Categories     Yam/Sweet Potato

Time 50m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

24 ounces peeled and cubed butternut squash (weighed after peeling)
1 large sweet potato, peeled and cut in 1/2 inch dice (I used one that weighed almost a pound before peeling)
3 small carrots, sliced
1 -2 tablespoon oil
1/2 large onion, chopped
2 -3 garlic cloves, minced
1 1/2 tablespoons minced fresh gingerroot
4 cups chicken broth (I use organic low-sodium)
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon (or more to taste)
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg (or more to taste)
almond milk (I use Almond Breeze unsweetened original or unsweetened vanilla)
fresh ground pepper
salt
fresh orange juice (optional)

Steps:

  • If you are using a fresh butternut squash, cut it in half lengthwise and scoop out the seeds. Peel it and cut it into 1-inch chunks.
  • Heat the oil in a large soup pot over medium heat. Add the onion and cook until it softens, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and ginger root and cook until fragrant, about 3 minutes.
  • While the onions are cooking, peel and dice the sweet potato and carrots.
  • Add the cut vegetables and broth; bring to a boil. Lower heat and cook at a gentle boil until the squash is fork-tender, about 20 minutes (but this depends on the size of your squash cubes).
  • Puree the soup in several stages in a blender. For safety's sake, since the soup is hot, do not fill the jar more than about 1/4 full each time, and blend on a low speed, covering the lid with an oven mitt. The soup should be completely smooth and a little thicker than heavy cream.
  • Rinse your soup pot to remove any small chunks of food and strain it if you like (I do not strain).
  • Heat the soup through again and season to taste with cinnamon, nutmeg, black pepper and salt.
  • Add some almond milk, a little at a time, to give soup a creamier consistency. (Instead of almond milk or Almond Breeze, you could probably use soy or rice milk or half and half).
  • Just before serving, add about 2-3 teaspoons fresh orange juice (or to taste) to each bowl, if desired; stir to blend into soup.
  • This soup tastes fine when it has been reheated. The soup will thicken as it chills, so you may want to add extra spice right at the start, if you know you will be re-heating some later. You will need extra Almond Breeze to thin it out after it has been refrigerated. I have kept it in the fridge for as long as 4 days and it was fine.
  • You can sub pumpkin pie spice for the ground spices listed.
  • Because the veggies make the broth very flavorful, you can also use half chicken broth and half water (2 cups of each) with good results.

Cook's Note This soup is also great served with crumbled feta cheese instead of yogurt as garnish.

CURRIED-CARROT-POTATO-SOUP



Curried-Carrot-Potato-Soup image

My sis and me came up with this recipe when searching for a nice, relatively quick to make and warming dinner dish on one of those cold winter days. This soup is not overly spicy and has a light sweetness coming from the carrots. It makes for a thick soup, so if you like your soup to be less like a puree, you might have to add more broth to it. We served this with Recipe #178020, which was very very tasty!

Provided by Lalaloula

Categories     Potato

Time 1h10m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

6 medium carrots
1 1/4 kg potatoes
2 white onions
2 red onions
1 garlic clove
2 tablespoons oil
1 1/4 liters vegetable broth (more if you like your soup less creamy)
2 1/2-3 teaspoons curry powder
1 teaspoon caraway seed
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Peel and chop carrots and potatoes into small chunks. Slice the onions, mince the garlic.
  • Heat the oil in a large heavy pot (I use cast-iron). Add the garlic, the curry powder, caraway seeds and the onions and saute for some minutes until lightly browned. Add the potatoes and carrots and saute on medium heat for another 10 minutes.
  • Add the broth, cover and let simmer for about 35-40 minutes or until all veggies are tender. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Puree soup using a hand held blender until it has the desired consistency-I like it to be still chunky (add more broth if needed).
  • Serve with some warm bread of your choice.
