1.
Melt the butter in a large pan and gently cook the onion until soft. Stir in the coriander and cumin and cook for 2 more minutes.

Add the swede and parsnips, stir to coat in the butter then add the vegetable stock. Bring to a boil then simmer for about 20 minutes or until the vegetables are tender.

With a hand blender or potato masher roughly blend the soup, leaving it quite chunky. Stir in the almonds and milk, simmer for 5 minutes and season with salt and pepper.

For the garnish, roll the pastry out to a rectangle about 5 cm x 12 cm. Sprinkle with the sesame seeds, season with salt and pepper and roll up. Cut into 1 cm slices, brush with melted butter and bake in a hot oven for about 7 minutes or until brown. Serve the soup sprinkled with chives and the sesame snails alongside.
