How To Jazz Up Your Pumpkin Soup

Ahhh… pumpkin soup.

There’s nothing like sitting down to a warm, golden bowl like this.

We like to make ours a little bit creamier by adding some Coco Quench. But even an old favourite can sometimes needs a little jazzing up – so why not mix it up?

Use our Basic Pumpkin Soup recipe as your base + one of these 3 ways to add maximum flavour with minimum tweaking.

#1 Pumpkin Nutmeg Soup with Cranberries

Just by adding a tsp of nutmeg before you add the pumpkin shifts this soup into ultimate comfort cooking mode. Garnish with dried cranberries and chopped parsley or chives for a bit of zing!

#2 Pumpkin, Carrot and Ginger Soup

Swap out the sweet potato in the original recipe for 2 large carrots and add 1cm of freshly grated ginger with the other spices to give freshness and a zingy kick to this soup. Garnish with fresh coriander leaves for a delicious pick me up.

#3 Curried Lentil and Pumpkin Soup

Adding a tsp of garam marsala once the onion has softened and 3/4 cup of washed red lentils along with the pumpkin makes for a hearty and warming meal. Serve with grilled flat bread and a dollop of yoghurt on top.
