soup season

Its hard trying to think of something to post.  It can't be interesting to see a picture of every six inches I knit on the same sleeve.  But, with only five more days in this month, I hate to quit now.  Last week Kim  posted her delicious recipe for carrot soup.  That got me wishing I had some.  With the cold snap, soup sounded awfully good to me.  I commented that I make  a curried version and she asked if I'd share it. 

Carrot Curry (Yogurt) Soup

blend together:
2 T yogurt
2 tsp. cornstarch  (if you don't have it go without)

Grate 1 lb. carrots and cook in a pot with:
3 c chicken stock (vegetable would be fine)

Chop and saute an onion in 2 T butter. Add to simmering carrots.

Add spices:
2 T curry powder, salt and white pepper to taste.

I like to blend or whisk the carrots until they are partly pureed.

Add the yogurt, stir well. 
Keep warm but do not boil.

Want something easier than that?  Friday I went to Costco.  They had a wonderful carrot soup in a box.  Heat and Serve.  It was a Cashew Carrot Soup with roasted poblano peppers in a coconut base.  Yummmm…

    Your soup sounds great!

  2. I love curry – this sounds great. Although, that costco option sounds pretty great, too.

  3. Mmmm, yummy. You ladies are pushing me to make soup! When I get to it, I think I will make squash soup. Today, though, it’s pies, cranberries, and green bean casserole.

  4. There’s NO WAY the family could come home and say “Aw, I had that for lunch!” VBG!

  5. That soup sounds delicious.
    I’m glad you’ve made the effort to post – I do so enjoy your ‘voice’ and your perspective, and have enjoyed reading you daily.

  6. Now I know what to do with the carrots I just picked—perfect timing—thank you!

  7. Picific and Trador Joe’s has a decent boxed organic version of Carrot Ginger too. Thanks for the recipe!

  8. Thanks Judy! It sounds scrumptious!!
