Adam Gray adds a touch of Granny Smith apple to his creamy apple and parsnip soup recipe, which compliments the earthy, sweet parsnip beautifully. With both star ingredients at their best in autumn, this warming soup is bound to become a seasonal favourite. Use a non-animal rennet alternative to Parmesan if catering for vegetarians.

Pour in the milk to cover the ingredients and bring to the boil. Reduce the heat and simmer gently for 15-20 minutes, until the parsnips are tender
1000ml of semi skimmed milk

Remove the parsnip and apple soup from the heat and pour in the cream. Reheat on a gentle heat, stirring continuously. Once added the single cream to the soup you must not boil as this will cause the soup to curdle.
