Ingredients
- Two tablespoons of delicate light olive oil
- Three onions, halved and finely sliced
- Six cloves of garlic, peeled and gently crushed
- A generous eight cups of smooth pumpkin puree
- Two quarts of flavorful chicken broth
- Four cups of refreshing water
- Two teaspoons of sea salt
- A dash of freshly ground black pepper
- A hint of fragrant celery seed
- A can of rich evaporated milk (12 fluid ounces)
- A cup of creamy plain yogurt
- Twelve ounces of succulent minced cooked ham slices
Step 1
Begin by warming olive oil in a generously sized pot set over medium-high heat. Toss in the onion and garlic, letting them sizzle and soften for around 5 minutes. Introduce the pumpkin, chicken broth, water, a sprinkle of salt, a dash of pepper, and a hint of celery seed. Let this fragrant concoction come to a lively boil, giving it an occasional stir. Once bubbling, take it off the heat and pour in the milk and a dollop of creamy yogurt. With an immersion blender, transform the mixture into a velvety puree. Finally, mix in some savory ham and allow it to mingle and warm through before serving up this comforting delight.
