Yet another masterpiece! I served this as the first course of our Easter Dinner. It was so good, I had to take it away from my husband to ensure he would still have room in his stomach for our dinner! I must admit that I omitted the curry during cooking and added more bay leaves (we love bay!), so that I could have a simple and delicious pumpkin soup for easter dinner, however - I did add curry the following day to the left overs - which we enjoyed very much for dinner along with a side salad. The flavors complimented eachother wondefully. MarieAlice, I always seem to pick a winner when it's from your recipe book!
