SUNCHOKES BRAVAS WITH ROASTED PEPPERS AND LEMON AIOLI

Steps:

• Preheat a charcoal grill over high heat. Preheat the oil in a deep-fryer to 350 degrees F.
• Add the peppers directly to the hot coals and allow to char and blister on all sides, about 5 minutes. Carefully remove from the grill and add to a heatproof bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and allow to steam, 10 minutes.
• Remove the peppers from the bowl and place on a clean work surface. Gently remove the seeds and charred skin. Add the peppers to a food processor and turn on the machine. Stream in the vinegar and olive oil.
• Pour this mixture into a large, high-sided saute pan and place over medium-high heat. Heat just until it bubbles, then remove from heat. Keep warm until ready to serve.
• Meanwhile, add the sunchokes to the deep-fryer and fry until evenly golden brown, about 10 minutes. Drain on a wire rack-lined sheet tray and sprinkle with salt.
• For the aioli: Combine the mayonnaise, garlic, lemon juice and zest in a blender. Whip until smooth.
• Add the red pepper puree to the bottom of a serving platter. Top with the fried sunchokes and drizzle with the aioli.

CREAMY ROASTED PARSNIP SOUP

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
• Place the parsnips and carrots into a mixing bowl, and sprinkle with 1 tablespoon olive oil. Toss to coat the vegetables with oil, then season to taste with salt and pepper. Spread the vegetables evenly over a baking sheet.
• Roast in the preheated oven until the parsnips are tender and golden brown, about 30 minutes.
• Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Stir in the onion and celery. Cook and stir until the vegetables have softened and the onion is beginning to turn golden brown, about 7 minutes. Reduce the heat to low, and stir in the butter, garlic, brown sugar, and the roasted parsnips and carrots. Continue to cook and stir until all of the vegetables are very tender and beginning to brown, about 10 minutes.
• Season with the ginger, cardamom, allspice, nutmeg, and cayenne pepper; stir for 1 minute. Pour in the chicken stock, and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low, partially cover, and simmer gently until all of the vegetables are very tender, about 15 minutes.
• Pour the soup into a blender, filling the pitcher no more than halfway full. Hold down the lid of the blender with a folded kitchen towel, and carefully start the blender, using a few quick pulses to get the soup moving before leaving it on to puree. Puree in batches until smooth and pour into a clean pot. Alternately, you can use a stick blender and puree the soup right in the cooking pot.
• Stir in the milk and cream. Return to a simmer over medium-low heat. Season to taste with salt and pepper before serving.
