Golden, Curried, Pumpkin Soup

Hello Dear Reader,

So far, from our garden, I have harvested two spectacular pumpkins and have 4 beautiful big ones still on the vines ripening. I am super chuffed to be finally eating something from our garden and hope that it is just the beginning.

So far I have made a gorgeous salad, starring roast pumpkin, a lovely Roast Pumpkin Semolina Gnocchi, some delicious Pumpkin and Haloumi Burgers and this super delicious Golden, Curried, Pumpkin Soup. I've made it in the Thermomix but it could easily be made on the stove top and then blended with a stab blender at the end.

The bright yellow golden colour comes from, pumpkin, of course but also carrot and sweet potato which also lends a beautiful sweetness to the soup, it also has curry powder and garam masala to add even more golden colour and flavour to this lovely warming soup.

Ingredients for Golden, Curried, Pumpkin Soup, clockwise from top right-800 grams roughly chopped, mixed, golden pumpkin, sweet potato and carrot (I had a ratio of 500 grams pumpkin, 200 grams sweet potato and 100 grams carrot) 1 tin coconut cream, 2 cloves garlic, peeled, 1 large brown onion, peeled and quartered, 1 teaspoon garam masala, 1 tablespoon or more to your liking of your favourite curry powder blend and 600 grams of veggie stock

Add the garlic and onion to the bowl of the TM

Chop for 3 seconds on speed 5

Scrape down sides and add the garam marsala and curry powder along with a splash of oil

Sauté for 5 minutes, at 100 C, on speed 1

Now add golden veg

And chop for 10 seconds on speed 6

Add the veggie stock and scrape down the side of the TM bowl

Cook for 30 minutes, at 100 C, on speed 2. When finished cooking, add the coconut cream 

And blend for 1 minute on speed 9 

Smooth, golden and full of flavour. Such a glorious colour. 

Serve with chopped parsley or coriander and a swirl of cream or yoghurt

Your turn, what is your favourite recipe using pumpkin as the star ingredient?

Have a lovely day,

💛Fi
