Pumpkin Apple Soup

This is my favourite soup, and is very easy.  Is from a Canadian Living
magazine about 4 years ago.

1/4 cup butter
1 clove garlic
1 onion
1 leek
1 large apple, peeled and chopped
1 tbsp curry powder
2 cups chopped fresh pumpkin
4 cups stock (1 use chicken stock)
1 cup whipping cream
salt and pepper
apple wedges

Melt butter in saucepan. Saute garlic, onion, leek and apple. Stir in
curry powder and cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly. Add pumpkin and
stock. Bring to boil, stirring occasionally. Reduce heat and simmer until
veggies are tender. Puree all in blender or food processor. Return to
saucepan and stir in all of cream but 2 tablespoons. Season with salt and
pepper. When serving garnish with fresh apple wedges, and pour a bit of
cream over top. Looks pretty! Serves 6-8.
