Pumpkin Soup Recipe
This delicious pumpkin soup recipe is perfect for fall! I love the sweet and savory flavor of pumpkin, and this soup is one of my absolute favorites.
Ingredients
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 medium onion roughly diced
- 1 carrot peeled and roughly chopped
- 1 potato peeled and roughly chopped
- 2 pounds pumpkin peeled and deseeded, roughly chopped
- 5 cups water or chicken stock
- Salt + pepper to taste
- Cream to taste (optional)
Instructions
- Place a large pot on the stove at high heat. Once the pan iswarmed up, add the olive oil. Then add the onion, carrot, sweet potato, and pumpkin. Cook for 4-5 minutes.
- Season the vegetables with salt and pepper. Roast them for another 5-6 minutes,stirring from time to time, until they are starting to soften and brown.
- Pour the chicken stock over the vegetables and reduce the heat to a simmer. Cook for 15 minutes.
- I take the pot off the heat and blend the soup until smooth. I use a stick blender when I'm short on time, but you can use a regular blender according to your manufacturer's instructions for hot liquids.
- Place the soup back on the stove over medium heat and heat until it is warm through out. If you want a thinner soup, stir in some cream. Allow the soup to warm for 2-3 minutes and then serve hot.
