Thai Pumpkin Soup with Coconut Milk

Roasted pumpkin combined with fresh east-Asian  ingredients creates a deliciously warm and hearty Thai pumpkin soup with  a spicy kick.

INGREDIENTS

– pumpkin – onion roughly chopped – fresh ginger – Thai red curry paste – coconut milk – vegetable stock

STEP 1

Preheat the oven to 400 °F.  Peel the pumpkin and scoop out the seeds. Chop the pumpkin into 2-inch pieces.

Put the chunks of pumpkin on a non-stick  or lined baking sheet, add a little drizzle of oil and bake in the oven  for 20 minutes or until tender and a fork pierces easily.

STEP 2

Add  a drizzle of oil to a large pan or stock pot and gently fry the onion  for around 5 minutes until softened. Then add the fresh ginger. Add the Thai red curry paste and stir.

STEP 3

Pour in the coconut milk and vegetable stock, along with the lemongrass, and bring to a simmer. Once simmering, add in the baked pumpkin, lime juice, and sugar, stir and place a lid on the pan.
