Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 lbs pumpkin
6 cups vegetable or chicken stock
1 tablespoon oil
2 onions, finely chopped
1 teaspoon ground cumin
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons honey
1 14-ounce can chickpeas, drained and rinsed
1/2 cup shredded basil

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Cut the pumpkin in large wedges, leaving the skin on. Place the wedges in a baking dish and bake for 40 minutes or until soft and golden. In two batches, scrape the flesh into a food processor with 1 1/2 cups of the stock and blend until smooth. Heat a saucepan over medium to high heat. Add the oil, onions, and cumin and cook for 4 minutes or until soft. Add the mustard, honey, the remaining stock and the pumpkin puree and simmer for 5 minutes. Stir through the chickpeas and basil and cook for a further 5 minutes. Serve with grilled bread.

Tips:

  • Use canned chickpeas for convenience: Canned chickpeas are a great time-saver and work just as well as dried chickpeas in this recipe.
  • Don't skip the spices: The spices in this soup are what give it its great flavor. Be sure to use a good quality garam masala and turmeric.
  • Adjust the heat level to your liking: If you like spicy food, you can add more cayenne pepper or chili powder to the soup. If you prefer a milder soup, you can omit the cayenne pepper or use less chili powder.
  • Top the soup with your favorite toppings: Some great options include chopped cilantro, plain yogurt, or a squeeze of lemon juice.

Conclusion:

This pumpkin chickpea soup is a delicious and healthy meal that is perfect for a fall or winter day. It is easy to make and can be customized to your liking. So next time you are looking for a warm and comforting soup, give this recipe a try!
