Pumpkin/Squash Soup With Garlic and Thyme image

This yummy, warming soup is perfect for cold winter days. It has a subtle garlic and thyme flavour and could be jazzed up easily by adding in some cream or serving with a dollop of sour cream and some cilantro or green onions on top. I hope you enjoy! :)

Categories     Onions

Time 40m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 teaspoon oil
400 g pumpkin, diced (I use hokkaido squash)
1 stalk celery, diced finely
2 garlic cloves, minced (use big ones, if you like garlic)
1 onion, diced
4 sprigs fresh thyme (or 1 ts dried)
2 cups vegetable stock (might need more)
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • If using fresh thyme first of all remove leaves from the sprigs and use only the leaves for the soup.
  • Heat oil in a pot and when ready, add all the veggies and the thyme. Sautee for about 4 minutes or until fragrant and lightly browned.
  • Add enough broth to just cover the veggies.
  • Simmer on medium heat for about 20 minutes or until veggies are tender.
  • Using a hand-held blender puree the soup to your liking.
  • Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Serve with all the trimmings you like. Enjoy!
  • NOTE: For a slightly different flavour, roast the pumpkin and garlic beforehand (in the oven) and cook slightly less.

I think this soup would be better if it was served with a side of crusty bread.

Overall, I thought this soup was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either.

This soup is a lot of work for not a lot of payoff. I don't think I'll be making it again.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my soup turned out really bitter.

This soup is way too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try making it again with less sugar.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my soup turned out too watery. I had to add a lot of cornstarch to thicken it up.

This soup is a bit bland for my taste. I think it could use some more salt and pepper.

I'm not a huge fan of pumpkin, but I really enjoyed this soup. The squash and thyme balance out the pumpkin flavor perfectly.
