This soup is fantastic! I made it for a church group last night and they are hounding me for the recipe. I made some tweeks, as any cook does. I doubled the butter and flour becasue I wanted to ensure a thick soup. I pre-cooked a sweet potato, cubed, in the veg stock. When it came to add the stock I took out the sweet potato and added it at the very end so it would not break up. And I kept the soup chunky. NEXT I will add either shrimp, black beans or chicken breast, I will keep it super thick and serve over rice. I added alot more curry, and included some ground red pepper too! Fantastic and lots of options to create different meals.

ktkate has a winner here!!! I had a 29 ounce can of pumpkin on hand so that's what I used, I also added a bit more of the onion and mushrooms (did not really measure:) )...I loved the thickness - so yummy, filling and warming...a cozy meal!! Pretty quick and easy to put up...this is a great soup...it made a perfect Autumn dinner...wonderful buttery texture with just the right kick of spice!! Lovely flavors and a terrifically comforting aroma...I picked it for PAC Fall'07 and am so happy to have found it - THANKS ktkate!!! :)
