    We had this last night and it was really yummy. I used the vegetables I had in the house, so substituted the parsnips and squash for carrots, jerusalem artichokes & celery and served with cous cous.

    Did a very basic version with only parsnips, peppers, onions, garlic and pesto and it still was pretty tasty. Served with some haddock ishcakes. Yummy
