roast pumpkin soup
These lovely crisp Autumn day’s are the perfect time to hone your soup making skills before Winter arrives. I personally can’t think of anything better or more comforting than curling up with a warm bowl of home made soup, what’s better is the list of soups to make is endless. This pumpkin soup is a tweaked version of my Mum’s recipe, I adore this recipe as it is so easy and always tastes amazing.

Roast Pumpkin Soup
What’s great about this recipe is that you can easily make more or less. Just use equal measure of the ingredients.
1/2 pumpkin, skin cut off and roughly cut into medium cubes
1 onion, roughly cut
4 cloves of garlic, peeled and slightly crushed
1 teaspoon, thyme or oregano
1 tablespoon of golden syrup
olive oil
1 cup chicken stock
2 cups warm water
salt and pepper to taste
Preheat oven to 180°C. Put cut pumpkin, onion and garlic into a deep roasting dish. Sprinkle with thyme then cover with a little olive oil and the golden syrup shake pan until veggies are slightly covered in oil and syrup. Cook for around 40-45min or until pumpkin is tender.
Tip everything into deep saucepan and season with a little salt and pepper. Pour in chicken stock and enough water to cover the pumpkin and onion. Simmer for around an hour {the longer the better} keep topping up with water so it doesn’t reduce too much. Once the soup mixture starts to darken it is ready, either allow to cool before blending in a blender or puree with a soup wand in the pan. Serve with a little cream cheese and basil and enjoy with some warm fresh bread.
This soup freezes really well and will keep for around a week in a well seal container in the fridge.

I keep trying recipes lately with them not really passing the grade. But finally I’ve found one! This recipe made for a lovely soup with great flavours! What I love about it too, is that it still tastes yum without cream (we’re a dairy free house). Thank you.
