Hey, guys how are you all? Hope you all had a lovely Christmas with your loved ones and started the new year with a bang! We had a fantastic time together over the Christmas period. We indulged and enjoyed so much yummy and tasty food, movies, games and shopping, and in the beginning, of a new year, did get away for a 5 day trip to Austria and Hungary. A great way to start a new year, right!? 🙂

I just mentioned above that over the Christmas we had rich, tasty and calorie loaded food, especially we went crazy on potatoes and gobbled so many Roasted Potatoes, Aloo and Onion Paratha, Aloo Tikki, Aloo Matar, and Dry Aloo Bhaji with Methi Thepla just because our local supermarket was selling 2.5kg Potato bag for only for 29p! Crazy right? Not only potatoes but carrots, parsnips, Brussels sprouts and so fresh cauliflower too.

I got so greedy and bought almost a half a trolly full all these veggies. Whatever we could use for the recipes I used and all the leftover vegetables I used in making soups and froze them as I knew after coming back from the holiday we will need some food where I don’t have to cook much ( oh yes, I do not easily switch off from the holiday mood) also we wanted to start a new year with the healthy note and of course wanted to beat cold and gloomy winter days with these type of piping hot soups.

Hi Sapana thanks for your comment. Nope, Lol I can not bake a good bread like this :) I thinks it's from the Asda or Tesco, hubby got it. It's wooden board, after painting I left it in the garden and forgot about it, and it rained at night so I am left with this one :) Thinking painting it again.

Justice my lord, I need justice. How one can prepare such a delicious soup, where soup is meant to be bland or spicy!?

Lol :) Hey Nive thanks for your comment. This soup is not bland but not overly spiced either..it's flavourful though but mildly sweet due to addition of the parsnip.
