Gah! I've got a head cold ... sneezing, coughing and generally feeling grotty :(
What better than a warming soup?
Quick and easy to make, I simply shredded a leek, a little ginger, minced a few cloves of garlic, cubed a large parsnip and a Scotch Bonnet pepper.
Kill or cure!
Add some ground coriander and a sprinkle of turmeric (the medicine).
Boil that lot in a large pan with some bouillon, blend, reduce and thicken.
If only I had some chicken bone broth ...
Pour in some cream if you like (I didn't), serve and garnish with some fresh herbs - more coriander.
Hot! Hot! Just right for a healing soup.
Leftovers? Next time, stir in some spinach ... after that, drop in some shredded ham ... or some scallops.
