curry pumpkin soup

March 1, 2011      Leave a Comment

One of the comments I received is that people miss the full recipes I used to post (obviously with photographic accompaniment). I attribute the lack of that to sheer laziness on my part, and I resolve to get back with it.

Starting tonight with… drumroll…

Curry Pumpkin Soup.

The funny thing with this is that I don’t really like pumpkin. I tried this simply because the recipe kept popping up and just sounded good. The recipe below is courtesy of a parishioner of the Church of St. Ambrose & Our Lady of Good Counsel Catholic Churches. I have made my own modification, which I indicate throughout.

INGREDIENTS:
1 large onion, finely chopped (I use less than 1/2 of a large red onion)
1/4 cup butter
1/2 tsp curry powder
2 cups pureed pumpkin
1 1/2 tsp salt
2 cups half & half (I use 1 cup half & half and 1 cup fat free milk)
2 1/2 cups chicken broth (I use natural goodness low-sodium)
chopped parsley and sour cream for garnish

Check out this handy visual aid:

Saute the onion in the butter until nice and tender. Nothing like the smell of slowly melting butter as the base for a soup on a chilly night.

Sprinkle with curry powder and saute for an additional two minutes. The onions will take on a gorgeous golden color.

Stir in the pumpkin and salt.

You will get a nice thick mixture like this.

Add the half & half/milk mixture, stirring constantly. Yes, I stopped stirring in order to take this picture. 🙂

Stir in broth and keep on low heat until soup is completely heated.

Garnish with a dollop of sour cream (fat-free here) and parsley (fresh from the garden if possible).

Enjoy!

Oh, how I love the sunrise. Fortunately, it wasn’t too long of a night, so this morning’s run was hard because of humidity and nothing more. 

Followed it up with some standing core moves (weighted marches, woodchoppers, and around the worlds), and now it’s time for a
fresh set of nails 💅🏻.

Are you back in the swing of things this Tuesday?

We are in for quite a few days of rain so I’m getting outside when I can. It’s funny how this particular weekend is always rainy! 

Are you in for sun or dancing between raindrops?

I’m still on the fence about a race on Monday. Should I or shouldn’t I? It’s just a 5k, but still.
