1 large carrot, peeled and cut into 4cm (1 ½ inch) match sticks
2 celery sticks, cut into 4 cm (1 ½ inch) match sticks
100g (3.6 oz) swede, peeled and cup into 4 cm (1 ½ inch) match sticks

2.5 ml (1/2 teaspoon) ground turmeric
1 litre (1 ¾ pints) vegetable stock

2. Add the turmeric and cook for 1 minute. Pour over the stock and adjust seasoning. Bring to the boil and simmer for 20 minutes. Serve garnished with chives.
