Classic pumpkin soup

Let's get started!

1. Cut the pumpkin in half and remove the seeds and strings. Then cut the pumpkin, onion, garlic, and carrot into pieces.
2. Place a pan over medium heat and heat the olive oil. Add the cut pumpkin, onion, garlic, and carrot. Then let it cook for 5 minutes.
3. Crumble the stock cube over the pan, add it together with the water and bring to a boil. Let the soup simmer gently for 30 minutes over low heat.
4. Purée the soup with an immersion blender and top with crème fraîche. To give the soup more (pumpkin) punch, you can add pepper and Tabasco.

Tip

Make it a visual feast and add some feta, pumpkin seeds and cayenne pepper, pomegranate, and parsley.
