How to make Farmhouse Pumpkin Soup
The perfect, nutricious way to warm up on a cold, autumn's day! Yummy & cheap.
Peel, de-seed & dice the pumpkin, peel & chop the onions/shallots and dice the potatoes.
Fry the garlic (in butter) on low heat for 1 minute.
Turn up the heat and throw in the onions/shallots and saute for 4-5 mins or until soft.
Add the potatoes, pumpkin, stock, spices, salt + pepper and bring to the boil.
Cover with lid, reduce heat and allow to simmer for 1 hour, stiring regularly.
Transfer the soup in batches to a blender or food processor, and blend until smooth.
Return to the pot, and continue cooking until heated through.
Garnish with either parsley or corriander and serve with crusty warm bread.
