Roasted Pumpkin and Coconut Soup

I really like pumpkin soup, really like it. I wanted to have a go at making it without cream. Turns out, it is really, really good. If you like pumpkin soup, I highly recommend trying it based on coconut like this, it is amazing.

Of note though, even though it is fairly healthy, the coconut content does mean it is high in saturated fat, so eat responsibly and enjoy.

Ingredients
  1. 2 kg pumpkin
  2. 6 tbsp coconut oil
  3. 2 large brown onions
  4. 4 tsp minced garlic
  5. 2 tsp minced ginger
  6. 1 L vegetable stock
  7. 800ml coconut milk (2 cans)
  8. 2 tbsp coconut syrup
  9. 1 tsp pink Himalayan rock salt
Instructions
  1. Pre-heat your oven to 180°C.
  2. Peel the pumpkin and chop into small pieces.
  3. Put the pumpkin onto lined baking trays (I use two large trays).
  4. Add 2 tablespoons of coconut oil to the baking trays (I use 1 tablespoon per tray).
  5. Put the pumpkin into the oven and cook until soft and lightly browned (about 1 hr, 15 mins)
  6. While the pumpkin is roasting, dice the onions finely.
  7. Put the diced onions into a large pot on high heat with 4 tablespoons of coconut oil. Cook until soft and lightly browned (about 8 minutes).
  8. Add the garlic and ginger to the pot and stir in for about 1 minute.
  9. Add the vegetable stock, coconut milk, coconut syrup and salt to the pot and stir briefly. Don't worry if it doesn't appear to combine.
  10. Carefully add the roasted pumpkin and bring to the boil.
  11. Reduce the heat to medium-low and let simmer for about 25 minutes stirring intermittently.
  12. Remove the mixture from the heat and let sit for 5-10 minutes.
  13. Mix with a stick blender.
  14. Serve and top with your choice of garnish.
Hubby Tip
  1. You can use a traditional blender but just be careful of the pressure build up the steam will cause.
