Is it just me or it's virtually impossible to find pumpkins after Halloween? While I enjoy carving a pumpkin for the occasion myself, I do think grocers are quick to judge that all shoppers buy them solely for that purpose.
The pumpkin is a type of winter squash that should be readily available from early fall to mid-winter. If stored in a cool place, it keeps well for 2 to 4 months.
This is the easiest soup you'll ever make. If you can dice an onion, you're good to go. Of course, if you managed to find a fresh pumpkin, feel free to bake it and purée it beforehand.
Pumpkin Coconut Soup
1 onion, diced
1 tbsp olive oil
2 cups vegetable broth
1 can coconut milk
1 can puréed pumpkin
2 tsp ground cumin
2 tsp curry powder
2 tsp ground ginger
Pinch of salt
Roasted walnuts, for garnish
In a saucepan, heat the oil and sauté the onion for 3 to 5 minutes, until they turn soft. Add all remaining ingredients and stir to combine.
Simmer on low heat for 10-15 minutes. Devour!

I going to make this tonight =)! Thanks Marie-Eve
ReplyDeleteMaking it right now! I added a few amendments, including
ReplyDelete* more than just a pinch of salt (but I also tend to add extra salt to most things)
* a dash of cinnamon
* simmering it for a while to boil it down-- my husband felt that it was too watery at first.
So far, so good! My house smells AMAZING. Thanks for this recipe!
