Ingredients:

• 500g diced pumpkin
• 400ml coconut milk
• 500ml vegetable broth

• to taste
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• for garnish

Kitchen Tools:

To start, heat the olive oil in a soup pot over medium heat. Add the chopped onion, minced garlic, and grated ginger, sautéing until fragrant. Stir in the curry powder and chili flakes, allowing the spices to toast for a minute to release their flavors.

Next, add the diced pumpkin to the pot, stirring to coat the pieces with the aromatic mixture. Pour in the vegetable broth and coconut milk, bringing the soup to a gentle simmer. Let it cook for about 20 minutes, or until the pumpkin is tender.

Using an immersion blender, carefully blend the soup until smooth and creamy. Season with salt and pepper to taste, adjusting the seasonings as needed. Serve the soup hot, garnished with fresh cilantro leaves for a burst of freshness.

The approximate total weight of the cooked Coconut Curry Pumpkin Soup is 1600g, with 4 servings at 400g each. One serving is approximately 350 calories.

One clever tip for this recipe is to roast the pumpkin pieces in the oven before adding them to the soup. This extra step will enhance the natural sweetness of the pumpkin and add a depth of flavor to the dish.
