Let yourself be enchanted by the warm and inviting coconut pumpkin soup! This recipe reminds me of cosy autumn evenings, when I stand in the kitchen with my family and we chop the vegetables together. The sweet scent of pumpkin and the creamy texture of the coconut milk create a perfect harmony that simply invites you to feel good. This soup is not only incredibly delicious, but also easy to prepare and vegan.

- 1 tsp fresh ginger

Chop and fry the vegetables: Heat the olive oil in a large saucepan. Finely chop the onion and garlic and fry them over a medium heat for about 2-3 minutes until soft and aromatic.
Add pumpkin and spices: Add the diced pumpkin, ginger (if using), curry powder and cumin. Mix everything well and fry for 2-3 minutes to allow the spices to develop their aroma.

Puree: Puree with a hand blender or in a blender until creamy and smooth.
Season to taste: Season the soup with salt, pepper and possibly with chilli flakes. If the soup is too thick, it can be diluted with a little more vegetable broth or coconut milk.
