Method

  1. Heat the oil in a saucepan and fry the curry powder for 1 min until fragrant. Stir in the veg, cover with three-quarters of the stock and simmer for 5-10 mins.
  2. Blend the soup until very smooth with a hand blender or food processor, adding more stock if the soup is too thick. Stir in the cream and ham, then return to the pan and gently reheat. Season and serve with a drizzle of cream on top.

    friends made this for us when we went for a meal last night, we all thought it delicious, so now I'll make it too. I don't think they put the curry pdr in, but it was still packed with flavour.

    Not bad at all! Made this with creme fraiche, and with fresh veg rather than leftovers, and just simmered it for a while longer. Very tasty.

    Really tasty. Didn't need as much stock as it suggests though. Could easily leave the ham out too.
