How to make creamy parsnip soup with apple and thyme?

Peel the parsnips and cut them into large pieces. Roughly chop the onion as well, peel the apple, core it and cut into cubes.
Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a large soup pot over medium heat. Sauté the onion for 3 minutes until translucent.
Add the garlic and cook for another minute. Then add the parsnips, apple and thyme and stir everything together.
Pour in the vegetable stock so everything is well covered. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat and simmer gently for 20 minutes until the parsnips are tender.
Remove the sprigs of thyme. Purée the soup with an immersion blender until smooth and creamy.
Stir in the heavy cream and season with salt, pepper and a splash of lemon juice.
Ladle the soup into deep plates or bowls. Garnish with a drizzle of olive oil, some fresh thyme leaves and optionally a few thin apple slices for serving.

Cooking mode Prevents your screen from going to sleep

A good immersion blender makes the difference between a soup that's almost smooth and one that feels truly velvety. Invest in a model with enough power—you'll notice it immediately in the result. Quality that pays off recipe after recipe.

Want this soup to be a real showstopper on the table? Serve it in beautiful deep bowls and place the pot in the middle of the table for anyone who wants seconds. That way a simple weeknight soup becomes a true sharing moment.
