Actually, it's very tasty! But it doesn't look like the vegetable soup I was expecting it to look like..
I chopped the carrot and parsnip very small (maybe too small) and added it to the stock with a little rosemary and thyme. I added the leek after about 40 mins.
So, the top photo looks like a real vegetable soup, but this is what it looks like in the jug - a bit too much veg I think and I was expecting it to be suspended rather than sunken! However, the taste is good and the ingredients are fresh and that's the main thing...
So, over to Whitney Houston for the song...
For a change I decided to make a watery-type soup rather than blitzing the ingredients. I fancied the idea of tasting the individual vegetables - just one of each. The other leeks are for dinner tomorrow night and one of the parsnips had such bad canker that most of it was composted.

Maybe if you had blitzed half of the soup and kept half of the vegetables whole you would have got the effect you were after.
