Creamy pumpkin soup

Have you ever tried pumpkin soup?  It's really good - even kids like it!  It's one of those foods, like carrot or beetroot cake, that sounds bad, but  actually tastes great! As an added plus, the pumpkin soup is all natural! 




Ingrediens

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 onion, roughly chopped
  • 2 garlic cloves, roughly chopped
  • 600g pumpkin, peeled, chopped
  • 3 potatoes, chopped
  • 2 carrots, chopped
  • 4 cups vegetable broth
  • 1/2 chili pepper
  • 1 teaspoon of turmeric
  • 1/2 teaspoon of curry
  • salt and pepper, to taste
  • pumpkin seeds, toasted



Instructions:

Heat oil in a pan over medium heat. 
Add onion and cook for 2-3 minutes until soft. 
Add garlic and all vegetables. 
Add broth and bring to the boil. 
Add the spices. 
Reduce heat to low, cover and cook for 25 minutes or until the vegetables are tender. 
Cool slightly. 
Use blender to make your soup smooth. 
To serve, ladle into bowls and top with toasted pumpkin seeds.

Enjoy!
