Ingredients
- 400g parsnips, cut into small chunks
- 500g celeriac, cut into small chunks
- 3 tbsp olive oil
- 1 large onion, finely chopped
- 1 celery stick, finely chopped
- 1 garlic clove, chopped

Method
1. Preheat the oven to 220°C/Fan 200°C/Gas Mark 7. Line an oven tray with foil. Toss the parsnips and celeriac in 2 tbsp of the olive oil and spread out on the oven tray. Roast for 30 - 35 minutes or until golden, shaking the tray half way through.
2. Heat the remaining oil in a large saucepan over a medium heat. Cook the onion, celery and garlic for 3 - 4 minutes, stirring often, until softened. Add the roasted parsnip and celeriac and thyme. Pour in the stock and bring to the boil. Reduce to a simmer and cook for 15 minutes.
3. Remove from the heat and use a stick blender to blitz until smooth. Or use a blender, then return the mixture to the pan.
4. Stir in the cream and return to a medium heat for 2 - 3 minutes until piping hot. Divide between serving bowls, top with a swirl of double cream and garnish with the extra thyme leaves. Serve with a sprinkling of finely chopped apple and crusty bread, if liked.
