How to Make A Spiced Pumpkin Soup

  1. Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a Dutch oven or large saucepan over medium-high heat.
  2. Sauté 1 medium yellow onion (chopped) for 3-4 minutes. Add 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon curry powder, 2 cloves garlic (minced), 1 teaspoon ground cumin, and 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg. Sauté for 1 minute more.
  3. Add 1 large sweet potato (peeled and cubed), 1 teaspoon salt, 4 cups chicken broth, and 1 (15-ounce) can pumpkin puree. Bring to a boil.
  4. Reduce heat to medium-low, partially cover, and simmer for 20-25 minutes, or until sweet potatoes are cooked through and softened.
  5. Remove from heat and let stand for 10 minutes to cool slightly.
  6. Carefully transfer half of the pumpkin mixture to a blender and blend until completely smooth. (Be cautious when blending hot liquids).
  7. Pour the blended soup through a fine-mesh strainer back into the Dutch oven.
  8. Repeat steps 6 and 7 with the remaining soup.
  9. Raise heat to medium, stir in 1 cup milk (or cream for a richer soup), and cook for 5 minutes, or until heated through. Do not boil.
  10. Remove from heat and stir in 1 tablespoon lime juice.
