    • Heat the butter, and when foaming, add the parsnips, apples, and onions.
    • Soften them but do not let them color.
    • Add the curry powder, the spices and garlic; cook for about 2 minutes, stirring well.
    • Pour in the stock slowly, stirring until well mixed.
    • Cover and simmer gently for about half an hour, or until the parsnips are quite soft.
    • Taste for seasoning.
    • Sive or liquidize, and if it seems too thick, dilute with a little stock or water.
