Creamy Coconut Curry Pumpkin Soup Recipe

Today’s Special: Coconut Curry Pumpkin Soup

Hello, foodies! Today, I’m excited to share my newest creation — a creamy and flavorful Coconut Curry Pumpkin Soup. This dish is a perfect blend of seasonal ingredients and warm spices, making it ideal for cozy autumn evenings or festive gatherings. Let’s dive into the recipe!

Ingredients:

• 1 small pumpkin (about 800g), peeled and diced
• 400ml coconut milk
• 2 tbsp curry powder
• 1 large onion, chopped
• 3 cloves of garlic, minced
• 1-inch piece of ginger, grated
• 1 liter vegetable broth
• 1 lime, juiced
• Fresh cilantro leaves, for garnish
• Salt and pepper, to taste

Kitchen Tools:

• large soup pot
• blender
• chef’s knife
• cutting board
• wooden spoon

To start, heat a drizzle of oil in a large soup pot over medium heat. Add the chopped onion, minced garlic, and grated ginger. Sauté until fragrant and translucent, about 5 minutes.

Next, add the diced pumpkin and curry powder to the pot. Stir well to coat the pumpkin in the spices. Cook for another 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.

Pour in the vegetable broth and coconut milk, stirring to combine. Bring the soup to a gentle simmer and let it cook for 20-25 minutes, or until the pumpkin is tender.

Once the pumpkin is soft, carefully transfer the soup to a blender (in batches if necessary) and blend until smooth and creamy. Return the soup to the pot and season with lime juice, salt, and pepper to taste.

When ready to serve, ladle the Coconut Curry Pumpkin Soup into bowls and garnish with fresh cilantro leaves. The vibrant colors and aromatic flavors make this dish a feast for the senses.
