Curried Spinach Soup

I absolutely LOVE this soup and make it all the time. I’ve adapted the recipe to be more healthy by using olive oil instead of butter and fat-free sour cream. Serve topped with croutons.

Step: 1

Place the potato in a saucepan with enough water to cover. Bring to a boil, and cook until tender. Drain, and set aside.

Step: 2

Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large saucepan or soup pot. Add the green onions, and cook until tender. Stir in the cooked potatoes, then gradually mix in the spinach, stirring after each addition until spinach is limp. Transfer the mixture to a food processor or blender, and puree until smooth.

Step: 3

Heat the remaining olive oil in the same pan, and whisk in the flour and curry powder. Gradually whisk in broth so that no lumps form. Return the spinach mixture to the pan, stirring to blend, along with the lemon juice. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly until thickened.

Step: 4

Place sour cream in a medium bowl. Ladle about 1 cup of the hot soup into the sour cream, and mix until well blended. Stir this back into the pot of soup. Heat through, but do not allow to boil. Serve immediately.

The word “stew” can refer to 2 time a dish and a cooking method. Stewing makes not fast cooking piece of meat, raw fruit or beans in a tastefull water based . It’s similar to braising, instead it does have a few notable differences. The raw animal vested is chopped into smaller pieces instead of being cooked whole , and the liquid completely covers the essential in a stew as different to a braise’s halfway full . When meat or raw fruit are cooked using this method, the resulting dish is called stew.

Stew has a perception for making a rib-sticking meal that comfortable you up on a freezing , winter day. It’s right that ; a bowl of classic beef stew can make warming properties , but stew’s comfort factor goes way beyond preserving you from the chill . It’s all about those soft and chunks of meat and vegetables, swimming in a thick, ultra-rich gravy. The way they come together make the greatest comfort food, no matter the weather.
