Pumpkin soup is a heart warming Winter dish & easy to make. Simply dice and cook 2 garlic cloves, leek & grated ginger with a dash of olive oil. Then add 2 cups of chicken or vege stock & 1.5kg chopped Kent pumpkin cooked until soft. Add a pinch of nutmeg & cumin. Season to taste with salt & pepper. Allow to cool before blending in batches. Re-heat to serve with a dollop of cream cheese & fresh or dried coriander & a slice of your favourite toast with margarine or butter. Enjoy :-). #pumpkin #soup #recipesforrunners
