Ingredients:

Serving

2 onions (1 lb. total), peeled and chopped
1 cup chopped celery
2 tbsp butter or margerine
1/4 cup tomato paste
3 tbsp curry powder
2 lb butternut squash, peeled and cut into 1-inch chunks
2 granny smith apples (1 lb total), peeled and coarsely chopped
6 cups fat-skimmed chicken broth
2 tbsp minced fresh ginger
1 dried bay leaf
2 whole cloves
1/2 tsp pepper
1/2 cup dry sherry
1/2 lb shelled cooked crab
thinly sliced red bell pepper (optional)
salt

Directions:

In a 5- to 6- quart pan over high heat, stir onions and celery in butter until limp, about 5 minutes. Add tomato paste and curry powder, and stir 1 minute longer.
Add squash, apples, broth, 4 cups water, ginger, bay leaf, cloves, and pepper. Stirring often, bring to a boil; cover, reduce heat, and simmer, stirring occasionally, until squash mashes easily, 30 to 40 minutes.
Remove and discard bay leaf and cloves. In a blender or food processor, whirl squash mixture, a portion at a time, until smooth.
Pour purée through a fine strainer back into pan. Add sherry and stir over medium heat until just steaming, about 2 minutes.
Meanwhile, remove any bits of shell from crab.
Ladle soup into wide bowls. Mound equal portions of crab in the center of each bowl. Garnish with bell pepper, if desired. Add salt to taste.
