Curried Apple Soup
For a different take on soups, try this one. The recipe is taken from Nourishing Traditions Cookbook, by Sally Fallon. This soup is delicious and all the spices give it complex flavors. If you find you are missing some of the spices, stop by your local Bulk Barn to get a small amount of the ones you are without. It’s definitely the most economical way to buy them! The soup makes a nice lunch with a slice of sour dough bread. Give it a try!
Ingredients:
- 6 apples (preferable tart), peeled and quartered
- 4 tablespoons butter
- 2 medium onions, peeled and chopped
- 1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
- 1 teaspoon dry mustard
- 1 teaspoon turmeric
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon ground coriander
- ¼ teaspoon cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon cayenne
- 5-6 cups chicken stock
- Juice of 1 lemon
- Sea salt
In a large saucepan, sauté onions in butter and cook until soft. Stir in spices and then add apples and stock and simmer until apples are soft. Transfer soup to a food processor to purée, or purée with a handheld blender. Add lemon juice and season to taste.
Happy cooking!
