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.
