This is a mild soup that I love to make near Thanksgiving-it's easy to make, filling, but not heavy. It takes well to added spices. From the November 2000 issue of Bon Appetit , it can be made one day ahead. I usually make an easy pasta sauce with leftover crushed tomatoes. Ingredients:
3 tablespoons olive oil |
2 cups diced onions |
1/2 cup chopped green bell pepper |
1 teaspoon curry powder |
5 cups canned chicken broth (or more) |
1 (15 ounce) can pumpkin puree |
1 cup frozen corn kernels |
1/2 cup crushed tomatoes, with added puree |
1/2 teaspoon dried rubbed sage |
1 cup grated extra-sharp cheddar cheese |
Directions:
1. Heat oil in heavy large pot over medium heat. 2. Add onions and bell pepper; saute until soften, about 8 minutes. 3. Add curry powder and stir 1 minute. 4. Add broth and next 4 ingredients; bring to boil. 5. Reduce heat and simmer 15 minutes. 6. Season with salt and pepper. 7. Serve with grated cheddar cheese. |
