Ingredients

1 tbsp olive oil
1 tbsp mild curry powder
250g cold roast potatoes and parsnips
1-litre chicken or turkey stock
100ml double cream, plus extra to drizzle.

Method

Heat the oil in a saucepan and fry the curry powder for 1 min until fragrant. Stir in the veg, cover with three-quarters of the stock and simmer for 5-10 mins.
Blend the soup until very smooth with a hand blender or food processor, adding more stock if the soup is too thick. Stir in the cream and ham, then return to the pan and gently reheat.
