I know this may look like apple sauce however it is much more complex than that. Subtly sweet apples and spices bring all the warmth of the season in one comforting bowl. Dunking crisp samosas or roasted pieces of sweet potatoes in this soup is an unrestrained must for myself. Feel free to adjust the spice according to your taste.
Apple Curry Soup

2 cups water
2 tablespoons curry powder
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon mixed spice
1 teaspoon chili powder

Combine all the ingredients in a slow cooker and cook on low for 8 hours. Puree, in small batches in a food processor or blend using a handheld blender. Reheat for an hour. Serve warm with a dollop of sour cream or creme fraiche.
It has been one of those short but long weeks... where Wednesday is going along fine only to realize it's actually Tuesday, you blink, and it's Friday. Yes, one of those weeks...
Have a nice weekend everyone! - JD
