Take off the heat and let it cool for 15 minutes.
In a liquidizer add the turnip and potato pieces and a little liquid from the pan and grind the content to a fine paste. The liquidizer will grind more efficiently if you add less water. If you add to much water it will take longer time and it will not grind fine. You may have to liquidize the tubers in batches. Liquidize all the content of the pan. Add the remaining liquid last. The consistency of the soup should be to your liking. If it is too watery you will evaporate some of the water. If the soup is too thick add a little water.
