Presentation

This creamy pumpkin soup is smooth, comforting, and perfect for chilly days. With a hint of sweetness from the pumpkin and warmth from the spices, it’s a simple yet flavourful dish that's easy to prepare and ideal for a light meal or starter.

Ingredients

500g pumpkin, peeled and chopped

1 onion, chopped

2 cloves garlic, minced

750ml vegetable broth

1 tbsp olive oil

100ml cream

Salt and pepper to taste

Preparation

In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic, sautéing until softened.

Add the chopped pumpkin to the pot and stir for a few minutes. Pour in the vegetable broth and bring to a simmer. Cook for 15–20 minutes, or until the pumpkin is tender.

Use an immersion blender to puree the soup until smooth, or transfer to a blender in batches.

Stir in the cream, and season with salt and pepper to taste. Simmer for an additional 5 minutes.

Serve hot, garnished with a drizzle of cream or some fresh herbs if desired.
