Prepare Your Soup.
Begin by heating a pan to medium-high heat and adding 1 teaspoon of olive oil. Then add the sliced onion and chopped garlic, to the pan and stir until the onion turns soft and slightly caramelizes.
Add in the pumpkin cubes and roast for 5 minutes. Then pour in the vegetable broth/water, salt and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and let the pumpkin cook for 10 to 15 minutes. Once done, allow to cool slightly and then transfer the mixture into a blender jar.
Blend into a smooth puree taking care to hold the blender cover with a kitchen towel to avoid the hot puree spilling over. Then add oregano and pepper powder into the blender jar and stir until everything is combined. Serve hot with optional toppings. Enjoy!
Blend the Soup.
After the Pumpkin has cooked for the recommended amount of time, it’s time to blend it until smooth. Use an immersion or regular blender to blend the soup, ensuring that all chunks are completely incorporated. Be careful not to over-blend as this can make the soup too thick, and add extra broth if needed until you reach the desired consistency. Serve your Creamy Pumpkin Soup hot with garnishes of choice. Enjoy!
Add Garnishes and Serve.
Once your Creamy Pumpkin Soup is perfectly blended, it’s time to garnish and serve. To add a little flavor and texture, try topping your soup with cheese and chilli flakes. A drizzle of cream also adds a delicious hint of richness. Alternatively, you can add in some fresh herbs like mint, thyme or rosemary for a pop of color and contrast. Enjoy!
