Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

2 teaspoons butter

1 large onion -- chopped

2 teaspoons peeled and minced ginger root

1/2 teaspoon caraway or cumin seeds

2 large garlic cloves -- minced

4 1/2 cups coarsely cubed peeled baking potatoes (2 very large)

1 medium Golden Delicious or other sweet apple -- peeled, cored

and diced

5 cups defatted low-sodium vegetable broth -- or chicken broth

2 teaspoons mild or hot curry powder -- (2 to 3)

1/2 teaspoon ground allspice

14 1/2 ounces chopped stewed tomatoes -- (canned)

or chopped plain canned tomatoes

1/4 teaspoon salt -- or to taste

 

In a 4-quart pot over medium-high heat, combine butter, onion, ginger and

caraway seeds. Cook, stirring frequently, until onion is limp begins to brown,

about 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook 1 minute longer. Stir in potatoes, apple,

broth, curry powder and allspice. Bring mixture to a boil. Adjust heat so it

simmers briskly, and cook until potatoes are tender when tested with a fork, 6

to 8 minutes longer. Using a 2-cup measure, scoop up 2 cups potato mixture;

transfer to a food processor or blender. Process or blend until smooth. Return

puree to pot, along with tomatoes. Simmer until flavors are well blended, about

5 minutes longer. Stir in salt, if desired, and serve.

 

Makes 4 or 5 servings.

 

Tip: The soup can be prepared with either chicken broth or vegetable broth.

NOTES : I [Nancy] love making this easy homemade soup for lunch or supper. It

requires just a few pantry staples--potatoes, onions, canned stewed tomatoes,

broth and one apple. It’s also ready to serve in just a few minutes.

Nevertheless, it's both savory and satisfying. Serve it with hot bread or a

grilled cheese sandwich for a substantial meal.
