Instructions

1. Heat the oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Sauté the onion and leek for about 5 minutes. Stirring occasionally.
2. Add the carrots, parsnips, ginger, garlic, orange peel and stock. Briefly bring to the boil. Simmer over reduced heat and the lid closed for about 40 minutes. Stir occasionally.
3. Let the soup cool down a bit, then puree in the mixer or with the hand blender until smooth. Then stir in the orange juice. If the soup is too thick, add more juice or stock. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
