Serves 6
Ingredients
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 1/2 pounds Granny Smith apples, peeled, cored, sliced
1 1/2 pounds parsnips, peeled, sliced
1 large onion, chopped
1 1/2 teaspoons ground coriander
4 cups (or more) canned chicken broth
Chopped fresh parsley
Apple slices (optional)
Preparation
Step 1
Melt butter in heavy large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add apples, parsnips, onion and coriander and sauté until slightly softened, about 12 minutes. Add 4 cups broth and bring to boil. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover and simmer until apples and parsnips are tender, about 40 minutes.
Step 2
Puree soup in blender in batches. Return puree to saucepan. Thin with more broth if desired. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and chill. Rewarm over medium heat before continuing.) Season soup with salt and pepper. Ladle into bowls. Sprinkle with parsley; garnish with apple slices if desired and serve.
