Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 50m

Yield 4-6

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/2 cup jasmine or basmati rice
3 tablespoons tomato paste
3 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
2 tablespoons golden raisins
2 teaspoons curry powder
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes, plus more, for serving
Kosher salt
1/2 cup roasted peanuts, roughly chopped
2 tablespoons olive oil
4 cups low-sodium chicken or vegetable broth
One 15-ounce can pure pumpkin puree
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh chives

Steps:

  • Cook the rice according to package directions; fluff and set aside.
  • Meanwhile, pulse the tomato paste, vinegar, raisins, curry powder, red pepper flakes, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/4 cup of the peanuts and 2 tablespoons water in a food processor until a coarse paste forms, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.
  • Heat the oil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the paste and cook, stirring frequently, until the oil begins to separate and the paste is brick red, 6 to 8 minutes. (Add a tablespoons or two of water if the paste sticks to the bottom of the pan at all.) Add the chicken broth, pumpkin puree and 2 cups water and whisk until blended.

FROM THE PANTRY: CURRIED PUMPKIN AND WILD RICE SOUP



From the Pantry: Curried Pumpkin and Wild Rice Soup image

There's always one can of pumpkin puree kicking around after Thanksgiving. Put it to use in this ultra-flavorful soup. We use traditional cooking techniques (part mole, part curry) by making a paste with common pantry staples and frying it in oil to create a deep layer of flavor. If you don't have wild rice, just use 1/2 cup of any dry grain you have on hand.

Categories     side-dish

Time 1h25m

Yield 4 servings (1 1/4 cups each)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/2 cup wild rice blend
4 tablespoons golden or dark raisins
4 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
1/2 cup roasted cashews, almonds or peanuts, roughly chopped
3 tablespoons tomato paste
2 teaspoons curry powder
2 teaspoons onion powder
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes, plus more for garnish
Kosher salt
2 tablespoons olive oil
4 cups chicken or vegetable broth
One 15-ounce can pure pumpkin puree

Steps:

  • Bring a small saucepan of water to a boil. Add the rice, and simmer until tender, 30 to 40 minutes. Strain and let cool.
  • Meanwhile, combine 2 tablespoons of the raisins and 1 tablespoon of the vinegar in a small bowl. Let sit at room temperature until ready to serve.
  • Pulse 1/4 cup of the nuts, the remaining 3 tablespoons vinegar and 2 tablespoons raisins, 2 tablespoons water, tomato paste, curry powder, onion powder, red pepper flakes and 1 1/2 teaspoons salt in a food processor until a coarse paste forms, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.
  • Heat the oil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the coarse paste, and cook, stirring frequently, until the oil begins to separate and the paste is brick red, 6 to 8 minutes. Add splashes of water if the paste sticks to the bottom of the pan at all. Add the chicken broth, pumpkin puree and 1 cup water, and whisk until blended. Bring to a simmer, whisking occasionally, and continue simmering until the soup has reduced and is slightly thicker than heavy cream, 30 to 40 minutes. Season with salt, and stir in about 3/4 of the cooked wild rice.
