Today’s Special: Coconut Curry Pumpkin Soup

As the weather turns cooler, I find myself craving warm and comforting dishes that remind me of cozy nights by the fire. That’s why I’m excited to share my recipe for Coconut Curry Pumpkin Soup with you today. This dish is a perfect blend of spicy, savory, and sweet flavors that will transport you to a tropical paradise with each spoonful.

Ingredients:

• 600g fresh pumpkin, diced
• 400ml coconut milk
• 2 tbsp red curry paste
• 1 large onion, chopped
• 3 cloves of garlic, minced
• 1-inch piece of fresh ginger, grated
• 1 liter vegetable broth
• 1 lime, juiced
• Fresh cilantro, for garnish
• Salt and pepper, to taste

Kitchen Tools:

• chef’s knife
• cutting board
• large pot
• immersion blender

To start, heat a large pot over medium heat and add a splash of coconut milk. Sauté the onion, garlic, and ginger until fragrant, then add the red curry paste and cook for another minute. Next, add the diced pumpkin and vegetable broth to the pot. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat and let it simmer until the pumpkin is tender.

Once the pumpkin is cooked through, use an immersion blender to puree the soup until smooth. Stir in the remaining coconut milk and lime juice, then season with salt and pepper to taste. Allow the soup to simmer for a few more minutes to let the flavors meld together.

When you’re ready to serve, ladle the Coconut Curry Pumpkin Soup into bowls and garnish with fresh cilantro. The combination of creamy coconut milk, spicy curry paste, and sweet pumpkin creates a unique and delicious flavor profile that will keep you coming back for more.

This recipe makes approximately 4 servings, with each serving weighing about 400g. Each serving is also roughly 250 calories, making it a light and healthy option for lunch or dinner.

One unique tip for this recipe is to roast the pumpkin cubes in the oven before adding them to the soup. This will enhance the pumpkin’s natural sweetness and add a depth of flavor that will take this dish to the next level.
