Could someone kindly supply me with a simple recipe for root vegetable soup.

Absolute beginner -

Many thanks

Chop up root veg. Add stock. Season. Pop on hob until veg are cooked. Enjoy.
That's my one and only soup recipe - its really nice.

2 leeks, 3 carrots and half a swede, all chopped. Melt 1oz butter in a large pan, add veg, stir till coated and cook for a few minutes till softening. Sprinkle over 1oz flour and mix in. Add 1 pint chicken or vegetable stock, stir well and simmer till veg is really soft. Blend to a puree. Add a quarter pint of milk and a splosh of double cream.

It is gorgeous.

I put mine in the slow cooker for 8 hours.

Chop up an onion, 3 carrots, 2 parsnips, 2 leeks, a Swede (or whatever veg you fancy), add 2.5 pints veg stock and 2 bay leaves, a little pepper. After cooking remove bay leaves, put soup in blender. So easy and so tasty.

Thank you all - much appreciated
