Directions
Crock Pot Southwestern Pumpkin Soup (Aka Korma Soup),Almost ridiculously easy to make, this soup is based on a recipe from “S.O.U.P.S. – Seattle’s Own Undeniably Perfect Soups” by Michael Congdon and is my absolute favorite soup. Although it is titled as “southwestern,” this soup tastes very much like my favorite Indian dish of Chicken Korma, a mild, flavorful, non-spicy curry. I also use the soup as a baking sauce for chicken breasts, thighs, and cubed tofu – very tasty!,I was very dissapointed in this soup. Not sure what the problem was, maybe too many spices and a little too sweet?,Almost ridiculously easy to make, this soup is based on a recipe from “S.O.U.P.S. – Seattle’s Own Undeniably Perfect Soups” by Michael Congdon and is my absolute favorite soup.
