Marston writes: "This is an easy and tasty soup for fall. I've had the recipe for years, but have gradually changed it to suit my family's taste. When I'm feeling ambitious, I make my own curry powder using 1 teaspoon each of ground cumin and ground coriander, ½ teaspoon each of ground ginger and fennel seed, and 1 tablespoon of turmeric."
