Steps

  1. Melt butter in a Dutch oven or large saucepan over medium-high heat. Sauté onion for 3–4 minutes. Add flour, curry, cumin, and nutmeg and sauté for 1 minute.
  2. Add sweet potato, salt, chicken broth, and pumpkin, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, partially covered for about 20–25 minutes or until sweet potatoes are cooked through and softened. Remove from heat and let stand for 10 minutes to cool.
  3. Place half of the pumpkin mixture in a blender and process until smooth. Using a strainer, pour soup back into pan. Repeat with rest of soup.
  4. Raise heat to medium then stir in milk and cook for 5 minutes or until soup is heated through.
  5. Remove from heat and add lime juice.
