The best pumpkin soup

As autumn kicks in there’s nothing more comforting than a warming bowl of yummy soup to feed the body and soul. The key to making a seriously delicious pumpkin soup that is so simple and without cream is to simmer the pumpkin with garlic and onion which is then pureed into the soup. It adds so much more flavor into the soup, you will be surprised!


Ingredients

  • 1 kg pumpkin (any), chopped into large chunks (remove skin and seeds)
  • 2 medium onions, sliced
  • 2 cloves of garlic
  • 3 cups / 750ml chicken or vegetable stock
  • 1 cup / 250ml milk
  • Salt and pepper



  • Directions

    Combine all ingredients (except salt and pepper) in a saucepan and bring to boil, then reduce heat and let simmer until pumpkin is tender.

    Remove from heat and use a stick blender to blend until smooth.
    Season to taste with salt and pepper, then serve with crusty bread.
    For a richer finish, substitute the milk with cream, but add after blending and do not bring to boil.

    Garnishes: Dollop of yoghurt, sour cream or creme fraiche goes wonderfully.
