Curried Zuchini Soup
This was really tasty! I found a base recipe online and then had to modify it of course. Here is the final delicious result. Even Janille – who is not a squash fan – ate it and said it was good. And unlike some of my soups that you must eat in moderation if your trying to watch your weight this is one you can pretty much just indulge in.
Ingredients:
- 1 large onion, chopped, about 2 cups
- 6 small clove garlic, minced
- 3 small carrot, thinly sliced so they will cook quicker. Shredded is fine to.
- 3 tablespoon butter
- 4 medium zucchini, diced. You do not have to remove the seeds
- 2 apples, peeled, diced
- 5 cups chicken broth made with bay leaf
- 1/4 cup curry powder
- 1/2 cup sugar
- salt and peper, to taste
In a 8 qauart saucepan, melt butter over low to medium heat; sauté the onion, garlic and carrot slowly until onion is clear and the carrots are soft Add zucchini, diced apples, chicken broth, and curry powder. Bring to a boil and then reduce to a simmer for 20-30 minutes. When everything is mushy – then you’re done.
If you have a really good hand blender you can use that. Just be forewarned that they do not chop the seeds very well. So if you only have a hand blender you may want to remove the Zucchini seeds before cooking. Add Sugar, salt and pepper to taste. To make it a little fancier you can add a spring or two of parsley on top.
Serves 8 to 10.
