Message from Maggie:

It has been a busy week on my end with travel to San Francisco for work.  When I got back temperatures had plummeted in DC and we even got beautiful snow globe-esk flakes.  Given that qualifies as soup weather in my book, I recreated this flavorful thai pumpkin soup my sister in law Jill served over the holidays.

Ingredients:

  • 1 shallot, peeled, chopped
  • 2 Tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 Tablespoon Red Curry paste
  • 2 1/2 cups canned pumpkin
  • 2 Tablespoons chopped fresh ginger root
  • 1 garlic clove, peeled, chopped
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 3/4 cup coconut cream
  • 3/4 cup coconut milk
  • 1 Tablespoon chopped green chilies
  • 1 Tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • Pinch of pepper

Instructions:

  1. Sauté onion in olive oil until soft. Add red curry paste, pumpkin, ginger, garlic, broth, coconut cream and coconut milk. Combine until thoroughly heated through.
  2. Place mixture, chilies, and lemon juice into a blender and mix until smooth.
  3. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
  4. Serve garnished with chopped cilantro, chopped peanuts, pistachios, and sour cream or plain yogurt.

Yields about 10 servings
