Servings: persons

1 (15 ounce) can organic pumpkin (you may also roast a pumpkin yourself)
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 garlic cloves
4 cups chicken stock or 4 cups vegetable stock
1 cup water
1/2 bunch organic kale (about 1/2 lb)
1 tablespoon curry powder
1 tablespoon cumin
5 baby portabella mushrooms, cleaned and sliced thin
1 (4 ounce) container sour cream (I use fat-free)
salt and pepper, to taste
Optional
shrimp or chicken, I added shrimp and it was very tasty

1
Chop garlic and cook in olive oil for 30 seconds - 1 minute. Add the pumpkin, and vegetable/chicken stock, water, curry powder and cumin. Bring this to a boil and cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Use an immersion/stick blender to blitz the soup until smooth. Add sliced mushrooms (and chicken or shrimp, if desired). Turn heat to low and simmer until kale is done.
2
Wash the kate well in a bowl of water. Separate the leaves from the stems. Discard the stems. Place a frying pan over a medium heat and fill with the kale. Put a lid on the pan, if you have one, and wilt the kale for three minutes, turning every so often so the kale cooks evenly. Remove from the frying pan to a chopping board and leave to cool completely.
3
Remove the soup from the heat and stir through the sour cream. Grind over some pepper and add salt to taste.
4
Chop the kale and add to the soup pot.
5
Taste for seasoning.
