Ingredients

• 600 grams pumpkin (peeled and diced)
• 1 medium onion (chopped)
• 3 cloves garlic (minced)
• 750 milliliters vegetable stock
• 200 milliliters coconut milk
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 teaspoon ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon ground coriander
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper (freshly cracked)
• 2 tablespoons pumpkin seeds (optional, for garnish)
• 1 tablespoon fresh parsley (optional, chopped for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Peel the pumpkin, remove its seeds, and dice it into small cubes. Chop the onion and mince the garlic.

Step 2

In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté for 5 minutes until translucent.

Step 3

Stir in the minced garlic, ground cumin, and ground coriander. Cook for 1 minute until fragrant.

Step 4

Add the diced pumpkin to the pot and mix well with the spices and onion. Cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Step 5

Pour in the vegetable stock and bring the mixture to a boil. Lower the heat to a simmer, cover, and cook for 20 minutes or until the pumpkin is tender.

Step 6

Remove the pot from the heat and allow the mixture to cool slightly before blending.

Step 7

Using an immersion blender (or transferring the soup in batches to a countertop blender), blend the soup until smooth and creamy.

Step 8

Stir in the coconut milk, salt, and black pepper. Return the soup to low heat and warm through for 2-3 minutes. Adjust seasoning to taste.

Step 9

Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with roasted pumpkin seeds and chopped fresh parsley if desired. Serve hot and enjoy!
