The Market Gardener’s Zucchini and Curry Soup

The Market Gardener’s Zucchini and Curry Soup | Bijouxs Little Jewels

My-go to soup in chilly weather, the classic Market Gardener’s Zucchini and Curry Soup. Recipe No. 620 in the Membership Collection.

THE PARIS COOKBOOK

This classic cookbook by Patricia Wells is one I go back to soooo.. many times for recipes, and the star for me is The Market Gardener’s Zucchini and Curry Soup. Another one to mark is “Les Allobrroge’s Braised Lamb Shanks with Garlic” -the four spice rub is amazing. “Slow-Roasted Salmon with Sorrel Sauce” is also a winner-a cookbook worth owning. I know Fall is on its way when my Hydrangea begins to loose its oak shaped leaves.

SIMPLE SOUP

This zucchini soup is simple, and a quick cook in the kitchen. You can vary the amount of curry, as Patricia notes, I do go for the full tablespoon of curry in my soup. The soup freezes well and is to have a great on-hand.
