The great thing about this recipe is that you can't really go wrong as the timings and quantities are not very important, and you can easily adjust the taste.
onions
garlic
curry powder
parsnips
veg stock
milk (don't use skimmed)
1. Finely chop an onion or 2 with a couple of garlic cloves. Cook in a big pan with some melted butter until the onion is soft and clear.
2. Add about a heaped tablespoon of curry powder (medium madras is used in the restaurant)
3. Add about 6 diced parsnips and stir them around a bit.
4. Cover with veg stock (veg stock cubes work well), bring to boil then simmer for about 10 mins.
5. Pour into a blender and blitz until smooth, add some milk (semi-skimmed is fine). Have a taste and you can add more stock or milk to adjust how thick you want to to be. I make it very thick. You could also add a tiny bit of chilli powder.
6. Pour back into the pan and simmer for a bit. Warm it up nearer the the time.
I had had a look on the internet and found this which is very similar except they forgot to add some milk:
