Ingredients

• 1000 grams pumpkin (peeled and cubed)
• 100 grams macadamia nuts (raw, unsalted)
• 400 milliliters coconut milk (full-fat)
• 750 milliliters vegetable stock
• 1 medium onion (finely chopped)
• 3 cloves garlic (minced)
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 0.5 teaspoons ground nutmeg
• 0.5 teaspoons ground cinnamon
• 1 teaspoon sea salt
• 0.5 teaspoons black pepper (freshly ground)
• 250 milliliters water (optional, for thinning)
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.

Step 2

Add the chopped onion and garlic, and sauté for 3-4 minutes until softened and fragrant.

Step 3

Add the cubed pumpkin to the pot and cook for an additional 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Step 4

Stir in the nutmeg, cinnamon, salt, and pepper, ensuring the pumpkin is well coated with the spices.

Step 5

Add the vegetable stock and bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and let it simmer for 20 minutes, or until the pumpkin is tender and easily pierced with a fork.

Step 6

Add the raw macadamia nuts to the pot and simmer for an additional 5 minutes to soften the nuts.

Step 7

Remove the pot from heat and carefully blend the soup until smooth using an immersion blender, or transfer it in batches to a countertop blender.

Step 8

Stir in the coconut milk, and if the soup is too thick, add the optional water a little at a time until the desired consistency is reached.

Step 9

Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt or pepper if needed.

Step 10

Reheat the soup gently if necessary, then ladle it into bowls.

Step 11

Garnish with freshly chopped parsley if desired and serve warm.
