Curried Pumpkin and Smoked Salmon Soup

"I remember reading a recipe a bit like this somewhere but didn't write it down, when I came to make it I merged two recipes together to make this and was really pleased with the end results. This is my DH's favourite soup! All quantities are approximatly as I just throw it together - email me if you have any questions."

directions

  • Heat oil in large pan.
  • Sauté onions and garlic until soft.
  • Add Pumpkin and cook for 5 minutes.
  • Mix in curry powder and cook for another few minutes to take the rawness of the spices.
  • Add stock and coconut milk enough to cover the vegetables and bring to a gentle boil. Simmer until pumpkin is soft, about 15 minutes.
  • When cooked turn off heat and allow to cool slightly, blend until smooth, return to pan and add more stock until the required consistency is reached.
  • Add the smoke salmon, the heat left in the soup will 'cook' the salmon.
  • Check seasoning.
  • I freeze this in batches with or without the salmon, either way its great. Once defrosted re-heat and add salmon if needed. I don't know how much this makes 8 + depending on the size of your soup bowls.

Thank you for stopping by to look at my page...here's a little bit about me... I live in the Uk with a hungry husband and two of my three fussy daughters. We follow a low carb diet which keeps our weight in check and I can stay off he wheat....it makes me poorly. I love making cakes, cookies and desserts for family and friends. In my life I am looking for world peace, unlimited supplies of organic chocoalte & self cleaning kitchen floors! I am at my happiest when getting paid, drinking wine & cooking cakes but it makes me very unhappy when it's my turn to wash up, when someone eats my chocolate, drinks my wine or uses my toilet! I work as a part time cook in a children's centrel. My afternoon job sees me as parish administrator at my local church. Outside of work I try to be as inactive as possible, although I do a bit of dog walking with ozzy (thankfully he only has little legs and doesn't need to go far. <a href="http://picasaweb.google.com/thetulipfairy/Ozzy02/photo?authkey=HhT0ux14Lv0#5113793555440255698"><img src="http://lh3.google.com/thetulipfairy/RvfYJQaywtI/AAAAAAAABGo/NzK_AYCiF6I/s288/Oozzy%20003.jpg" /></a> <a href="http://picasaweb.google.com/thetulipfairy/Ozzy02/photo?authkey=HhT0ux14Lv0#5099192685257170082"><img src="http://lh5.google.com/thetulipfairy/RsP4uwYGHKI/AAAAAAAAA0g/8Ljxr4lLvwg/s288/Small%20Camera%20001.jpg" /></a> I am also interested in working towards early retirement, we intend to leave the kids in the house, travel around Europe in a silver camper van 'doing' all the F1 Grand Prix spending their inheritance as we go!! My favourite films in no particular order are: Pulp Fiction, Blues Brothers, Dirty Dancing, Fight Club, Pretty Women,Vanilla Sky, The Breakfast Club, Hideous Kinky (although the book is better), Ferris Buellers day off, Autumn in New York, Mistress of Spices, Splash, Scent of a Women, When Harry met Sally, Sleepless in Seattle, Notting Hill I could go on and on and on....but I won't!!!! Some of my favourite books are, 365 Bedtime Stories, Harry Potter, Pomegranate soup, Julie / Julia Project, Hideous Kinky, Dinner with a perfect Stranger, The Tao of Pooh, this list really could go on and on and become endless as I am an avid reader. I have been a member of zaar's since May 2002 and have loved every minute of it, I just know that if I need a recipe you guys will have it! I haven't posted many recipes yet but I just love it when I receive a review. This is why I always review all the zaar recipes I try, I also try to photograph as many as possible too! <a href="http://www.amazingcounter.com"><img border="0" src="http://c8.amazingcounters.com/counter.php?i=1669569&c=5009020" alt="Hit Counter"></a><a href="http://www.amazingcounter.com">Free Web Counter</a> <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/untitled.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting"> <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/200_artistrichardneuman-art-prints_.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting"> <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/Adopted1smp.jpg" border="0" alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket"><img src="http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b280/carolinamoon21/Octoberevent.jpg">
