class=\"bitter\"><em>from Ayurveda Today, Volume 24, Number 2, Winter 2011<\/em><\/p>\nServes 4 \u2013 6\n\nThis warm winter soup is packed with flavor and easy to make. You can peel the sweet potato and squash, if desired. However, many nutrients are just under the skin of vegetables and the skin on both of these should be tender enough to enjoy, once they are cooked. On the squash, you can peel away any bumps or knobby parts.\n\nThere are several options for finishing the soup. The first way is just chunks of potato and squash, as prepared here. However, you can use a potato masher and coarsely mash up the chunks to a mushy consistency. You can also pur\u00e9e the soup in your blender for a smooth, creamy dish. Sprinkle with chives or chopped fresh cilantro and\/or some of the red pepper, chopped finely, for a little color.\n\nServe with chapatis, freshly browned corn tortillas, or toasted slices of whole grain bread with ghee.\n\n<strong>Doshic Notes<\/strong>\nVata :: Pacifies\/reduces the dosha\nPitta :: Pacifies\/reduces the dosha\nKapha :: Can imbalance, use low-fat options on the mil\n<h2 class=\"subheader caps\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Ingredients\"><\/span>Ingredients<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"bitter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-6076 alignright lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/ayurveda.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/winter-veg-1.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 300px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 300\/225;\" \/>\n2 Tbs. olive oil\n1 leek, sliced\n1 clove garlic, minced\n1\/2 sweet onion, chopped\n1 red bell pepper, chopped\n2 Tbs. curry powder\n1\/2 tsp. salt\n1 sweet dumpling squash (also called winter or carnival squash), de-seeded and cubed\n1 sweet potato, cubed\n4 to 5 curry leaves\n1 cup milk, soy milk, or low-fat unsweetened coconut milk\nBlack pepper, to taste<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"subheader caps\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Preparation\"><\/span>Preparation<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\nSaut\u00e9 the leek, garlic, onion, and bell pepper in the olive oil until the onion is translucent, 8 \u2013 10 minutes.\n\nStir in the sweet potato, squash, curry leaves, salt, and curry powder.
