Is it just me or it’s virtually impossible to find pumpkins after Halloween? Pumpkin is a type of winter squash that should be readily available from early fall to mid-winter. If stored in a cool place, it keeps well for 2 to 4 months.
This is the easiest soup you’ll ever make. If you can dice an onion, you’re good to go. Of course, if you managed to find a fresh pumpkin, feel free to bake it and purée it beforehand.
Pumpkin Coconut Soup
- 1 onion, diced
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 2 cups vegetable broth
- 1 can coconut milk
- 1 can puréed pumpkin
- 2 tsp ground cumin
- 2 tsp curry powder
- 2 tsp ground ginger
- Pinch of salt
- Roasted walnuts, for garnish
In a saucepan, heat the oil and sauté the onion for 3 to 5 minutes, until they turn soft. Add all remaining ingredients and stir to combine.
Simmer on low heat for 10-15 minutes. Devour!

October 27, 2010Making it right now! I added a few amendments, including
* more than just a pinch of salt (but I also tend to add extra salt to most things)
* a dash of cinnamon
* simmering it for a while to boil it down– my husband felt that it was too watery at first.
So far, so good! My house smells AMAZING. Thanks for this recipe!
