Great-Aunt Frankie's Zucchini Soup
INGREDIENTS
butter/olive oil
scallions, chopped
zucchini, cut into large chunks
soup stock or water
salt, pepper
curry powder
DIRECTIONS
Amounts vary according to taste & how much you want to make. For me, one bunch of scallions is usually good for about a half dozen medium zucchini.
In a soup pot, saute scallions gently (w/o browning) in a small amount of butter &/or oil. Add zucchini and enough soup stock or water to cover. Bring to a boil and simmer until zukes are soft. Whirl the cooked vegetables and liquid in a food processor or blender, adding salt/pepper and curry powder to taste. That's it!
Serve either hot or cold, with a dollop of yogurt or sour cream, if you like.
