Pumpkin is full of vitamin A and anti-oxidants. We should be eating more of it but we seldom cook it. At the market the other day, the pumpkins looked really fresh and plump. So I decided to make pumpkin soup.
It's really quite simple. Just skin the pumpkin, cut into smaller chunks, add in 1 or 2 potatoes, 1 chopped onion and throw everything in chicken stock to boil until pumpkin and potatoes are soft. Blend everything to get a smooth gooey mixture. Put to boil again and season with salt and black pepper. Add some cream and fresh milk and stir. Turn off fire 1 minute after cream and milk are added. Serve with toasted baguette and butter. We also had it with roast chicken and a salad. A rather easy-to-prepare dinner for 11 people--mummy, parents-in-law, brother and sis-in-law and my family.
