- In a large pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the onions and cook, stirring frequently, until soft and translucent, about 10 minutes. Do not brown. Add the curry powder and cook a minute more.
- Add the carrots, sweet potatoes, chicken broth and salt and bring to a boil. Cover and simmer over low heat until vegetables are very tender, about 25 minutes. Stir in the apples and honey. Using a stick blender, puree the soup until smooth and creamy. (Alternatively, cool the soup slightly, then puree in a blender in batches. Be sure to leave the hole in the lid open, and cover with a kitchen towel, to allow the steam to escape.) Season to taste with salt, pepper and more honey if necessary. Ladle soup into bowls and sprinkle with more curry powder if desired. (Note: As the soup sits, it will thicken up so you may need to add a bit of water to thin it out.)
- Freezer-Friendly Instructions: The soup can be frozen for up to 3 months. Defrost the soup in the refrigerator for 12 hours and then reheat it on the stovetop over medium heat until hot.

- Preheat the oven to 220C/200C Fan/Gas 7. Put the vegetable chunks in a bowl and toss with 1 tablespoon of the oil. Scatter over a large baking tray and season generously with freshly ground black pepper.
- Roast for 20 minutes, turn the vegetables over and return to the oven for a further 20 minutes, or until softened and golden-brown.
- While the vegetables are roasting, heat the remaining oil in a large saucepan and fry the onions for 10 minutes over a medium heat, or until well softened, stirring occasionally.
- Remove the vegetables from the oven and add to the pan with the onions. Pour over 1 litre/1¾ pint of the stock and bring to a simmer. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Remove from the heat, and blitz with a stick blender until smooth. Add the remaining stock and heat through gently, adding an extra splash of water if needed until your preferred consistency is reached.
- For the topping, put the pecan pieces in a small saucepan and dry-fry over a medium heat for 2–3 minutes, or until lightly browned in places, stirring regularly.
- Ladle the soup into warmed bowls to serve. Scatter a few of the sticky nuts on each serving of the soup, sprinkle with the cheese, a few thyme leaves and a grind of black pepper.
