A classic winter soup enjoyed best on a cold night, with a loaf of crusty bread and lashing of butter.
Ingredients
  • 1 x 170g pkt Continental South Indian Curry with Roasted Spices Flavour Base
  • 1 kg butternut pumpkin, peeled, deseeded, coarsely chopped
  • 750ml (3 cups) water
  • 185ml (3/4 cup) coconut cream
  • 1 tbs coconut cream, extra, to serve
  • 1 tbs finely chopped fresh chives
Instructions
  1. Combine the flavour base, pumpkin and water in a large saucepan over high heat. Bring to the boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, uncovered, stirring occasionally, for 15-20 minutes or until the pumpkin is tender. Remove from heat and set aside for 5 minutes to cool slightly.
  2. Place the pumpkin mixture in the jug of a blender and blend until smooth. Transfer to a saucepan and add the coconut cream. Place over medium heat and cook, stirring, for 5 minutes or until heated through.
  3. Ladle the soup among serving bowls. Drizzle with a little extra coconut cream and sprinkle with chives. Serve immediately.
