  1. Heat the oil in a saucepan over a medium heat. Add the onions and ginger, cover and cook for 8-10 mins, stirring every so often until softened. Stir through the curry powder, cook for 1 min until fragrant, then add the parsnips, carrots, potato and stock. Bring to the boil, cover and simmer for 20-25 mins until the vegetables are tender.
  2. Blitz with a stick blender until smooth, then blend in the lemon zest and juice.
  3. Meanwhile, heat the naans to pack instructions.
  4. Divide the soup between bowls and swirl 1 tbsp yogurt into each. Top with the parsley and some black pepper and serve with the warmed naans for dipping.
