Pumpkin & Coconut Soup
Coconut milk gives this pumpkin soup a creamy texture and rich flavor, without making it too heavy. This soup would make a wonderful starter for a special meal, such as Thanksgiving dinner. If you'd like to add some texture, feel free to garnish it with lightly toasted pepitas (hulled pumpkin seeds). A drizzle of pumpkin seed oil is also a nice touch.

Pumpkin & Coconut Soup

Ingredients

Directions

  • Heat oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add pumpkin (or squash), carrots, salt and pepper; cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are almost softened, 8 to 10 minutes. Be careful not to let them brown. Add onions and garlic; cook, stirring, until starting to soften, about 3 minutes. Add wine; cook, stirring, until it is almost completely reduced, 2 to 3 minutes. Add broth and coconut milk; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to maintain a simmer; cover and gently simmer until the vegetables are very tender, 15 to 20 minutes.

  • Working in batches, puree the soup in a blender (alternatively, use an immersion blender; use caution when blending hot liquids). Serve garnished with pumpkin seeds, pumpkin seed oil and/or freshly ground pepper, if desired.

Tips

Tip: Pumpkin seed oil has a rich, nutty flavor and is wonderful in salad dressings or to finish roasted vegetables or soups. Look for it with other specialty oils at grocery stores, or substitute any other flavorful seed or nut oil (such as walnut oil) or olive oil.
