Rich Pumpkin Soup

Place finely chopped carrots in a hot stock pot with olive oil. Add onions after a few minutes. When onions are wilted and clear, add curry powder, mustard and garlic salt.

Cook on medium-low till spices are slightly browned, then add the pumpkin.

Cook on low for 10 minutes till pumpkin mixture is lightly browned, then add Worcestershire sauce and taste. Add salt or pepper to taste. Then add broth, and to make it rich and creamy, add butter and cream.

The last step is the most fun for me: pull out your immersion blender (or a regular blender if you don’t have one) and blend until smooth and creamy.

Mmm, heavenly and autumn and a touch exotic.

I wish I’d gotten better pictures. Perfect to serve with Ree’s dinner rolls.
