Ingredients
4 Tablespoon Butter1 medium onion chopped or minced2 teaspoons minced garlic2 teaspoon curry powder1 teaspoon cuminpinch of cayenne pepper, or season to taste5 15 ounce cans of 100% pumpkin (not pumpkin pie filling)3-4 15 ounce cans chicken broth2 cups low fat milk1/8 cup brown sugar1 cup fat free half and halfdash of nutmeg and cinnamon (optional)
Directions
1. Melt butter in large pot over medium-high heat. Add onion and garlic, cook stirring often, until soft. The smaller the chop/mince, the quicker they will cook and the smoother the soup will be. Add curry, cumin and cayenne and cook for 2 minutes until you can smell the curry cooking.
2. Add the pumpkin and 3 cans of chicken broth, blending well. Bring to a boil and then reduce heat. Simmer for 10 - 15 minutes. If the soup is too thick, add the 4th can of broth during this period.
3. With the soup on low heat, add brown sugar and mix. Slowly add the milk, stirring to incorporate. Add cream slowly, stirring well. Add a dash of nutmeg and cinnamon if desired. If the soup does not have enough "zing" to it, you can always add a touch more of cayenne.
