Ingredients
 

  • 1000 g Hokkaido pumpkin
  • 1 Onion
  • 1 Optional: red pepperoni, chilli or piri piri oil
  • 2 tbsp Extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 teaspoon Thailand curry
  • 2 teaspoon Sugar
  • 250 ml Freshly squeezed orange juice (about 3)
  • 700 ml Chicken broth
  • 300 ml Vegetable broth
  • Sea salt
  • Tellicherry pepper from the mill,
  • Freshly grated nutmeg,
  • 200 ml Cream, cremefine or coconut milk,
  • Optional: some fresh ginger,
  • Optional: pumpkin seed oil

Instructions
 

  • Wash the Hokkaido pumpkin well, dry it, cut it open in the middle, remove the pumpkin seeds with a tablespoon and cut into approx. 2x2 cm pieces. Peel the onion and cut into large pieces. Halve the fresh pepperoni, remove the seeds and cut again in the middle. Squeeze oranges.
  • Put the olive oil in a large, tall saucepan and heat slowly. Add the pumpkin pieces, onion and pepperoni and fry a little. Sprinkle sugar and curry powder on top and fry again briefly.
  • Deglaze with orange juice and fill up with the broths. Then season a little with salt, pepper and nutmeg and bring to the boil. Reduce the temperature and simmer in a closed pan for approx. 20-30 minutes until the pumpkin is soft.
  • Finely puree with a hand blender, add the cream or Cremefine and season to taste again. Serve with pumpkin seed oil to taste.
  • Tip 5: Hokkaido pumpkin does not need to be peeled. If you want the soup a little nuttier, you can replace half the amount with butternut squash. For the butternut, please also remove the shell. You can add a little ginger and / or pepperoni / chilli, etc. to your taste. The cream / cremefine can also be replaced with coconut milk, as can the broth, depending on your taste. What you have there and the soup keeps getting a different whistle / taste. 😉 Continued for a day, it tastes even better / more intense. 😉
  • Then it can be served! Anyone at the table can then add pumpkin seed oil to their taste. We also had homemade, filled, warm pizza balls. 😉
  • Bon appetit !!! Bom Apetite !!!
