Ingredients

  • 15 tbsp Olive oil
  • 14 tbsp Butter
  • 240 g Onion
  • 240 g Celery
  • 1.5 tsp Salt
  • 0.3 tsp Ground black pepper
  • 16 cup Whole wheat flour
  • 5.4 tbsp Curry powder
  • 0.7 tsp Ground cinnamon
  • 0.2 tsp Ground ginger
  • 960 ml Low-sodium chicken broth
  • 240 g Carrots
  • 60 g Fresh spinach
  • 420 g Cooked turkey

Instructions

  1. In a large pot, heat olive oil and butter (or all olive oil) over medium heat. Add the onion and celery, sauté, stirring occasionally, until softened.
  2. Stir in whole-wheat flour, curry powder, ground cinnamon, and ground ginger, and cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant.
  3. Pour in low-sodium chicken broth, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot so they dissolve into the broth.
  4. Bring to a boil, then add the carrots, spinach, and diced potatoes. Return to a boil, then reduce to a simmer, cover, and cook until the vegetables are tender.
  5. Add the cooked turkey and simmer until heated through.
  6. Ladle the soup into bowls, top with a spoonful of cranberry sauce, and garnish with a fresh sprig of rosemary.
