Instructions

Grease a baking tray with oil and place in it the aubergine, the parsnip and the carrot, cut sides down. Brush the vegetables with oil. Roast in a preheated oven at Gas Mark 6/ 200°C/ 400°F for 30 minutes, turning once.

Allow the vegetables to cool slightly to handle it better. Scoop the aubergine flesh out, then chop it roughly. Dice carrot and parsnip.

Heat the oil in a saucepan, add onions and garlic and cook until softened, stirring occasionally. Add the roasted vegetables, vegetable stock, thyme, bay leaf, coriander and tomato puree, with a little salt. Stir, to mix the ingredients well. Cover and simmer until tender or for approximately 30 minutes. Allow the soup to cool slightly, then transfer to a blender and puree until smooth.

Return the pureed soup to the saucepan and add the single cream. Reheat the soup until it is heated through. Adjust the seasoning and stir in lemon juice to taste.

To prepare the seasoning with lemon and garlic, chop the lemon rind, garlic and parsley fine and mix it well.

Ladle the soup into warm bowls and garnish with the prepared seasoning.
