Orange Roasted Pumpkin Soup

Labels: { Nuts and Seeds, Potato, Pumpkin, Soups }

This bright golden-coloured, creamy pumpkin soup is perfect for a light lunch with some crusty artisan bread rolls. Roasted pumpkin, potato and spices work together creating a rich depth of flavour and creamy texture without addition of heavy cream.

1 kg Hokkaido pumpkin, peeled, deseeded, cut into 1cm pieces
3 tbsp Walnut oil
1 Potato, peeled and diced
1 Onion, halved and thinly sliced
1 clove Garlic, chopped
1 Cayenne chilli pepper, deseeded and diced
1 tbsp Curry powder
1 tsp Coriander powder

1 l Vegetable stock
250 ml Orange juice
100 ml Milk
Salt and cayenne pepper to taste
1 tbsp Lime juice
Roasted pumpkin seeds
Chives
Chilli threads

Preheat oven to 190C/375F. Place pumpkin and potato in a roasting pan. Drizzle over 2 tablespoons of walnut oil and toss to coat. Roast for 30 minutes or until tender.
Heat the remaining oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add onion and cook, stirring often, until soft. Add in garlic, pepper, curry, and coriander powder. Cook, stirring, for 2 minutes or until aromatic.
Add in pumpkin, potato, stock, orange juice and milk. Cook, covered, over medium heat for about 25 minutes. Blend the mixture in a food processor or with a handheld blender until smooth. Season with salt, cayenne pepper and lime juice. Ladle among serving bowls. Top with roasted pumpkin seeds, chopped chives, and chilli threads.
