Curried Pumpkin and Smoked Salmon Soup image

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.

Time 40m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 lb pumpkin, chopped or 1 lb butternut squash
1 large onion, chopped
2 large garlic cloves, minced
1 tablespoon curry powder
fresh stock (cubes work if needs must)
2 (13 1/2 ounce) cans coconut milk
200 g smoked salmon
salt and pepper
vegetable oil

Steps:

  • 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.
