Classic Pumpkin Soup

Instructions

1. 1

   Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the chopped onions and minced garlic, and sauté until the onions are translucent and the garlic is fragrant.

2. 2

   Add the peeled and chopped pumpkin to the pot and cook for a few minutes until it starts to soften.

3. 3

   Pour in the vegetable stock and bring the mixture to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and simmer for 20 minutes, or until the pumpkin is completely tender.

4. 4

   Use an immersion blender to puree the soup until smooth. Alternatively, you can transfer the soup to a blender, blend it in batches, and return it to the pot.

5. 5

   Stir in the cream and continue to heat the soup for a few more minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

6. 6

   Serve the soup hot, garnished with pumpkin seeds for added texture and flavor.
