Instructions

  1. Wash the pumpkin and cut away any damaged areas. Then divide, remove the kernels and cut the rest into approx. 1.5-2 cm cubes.
  2. Peel and dice the onion and sauté in a heated saucepan. Then salt and add the pumpkin cubes. Pour approx. 750 ml of stock and add grated or chopped fresh ginger, up to 1 teaspoon of curry powder, up to 1 teaspoon of cumin, fresh pepper from the mill, fresh chili or a little sambal oil, up to ½ teaspoon of salt, 1 teaspoon of sugar (important !) and add some chervil to taste.
  3. The soup is quite creamy and is ready after approx. 20-25 minutes, when the bowl is soft. Puree carefully (be careful - the stains are stubborn). If you like the soup with a bite, you don`t puree.
  4. Season to taste with 1 cup of crème fraîche or cream.
  5. Tip: Crabs or salmon like to swim in this soup, and ham cubes also go well in it.
  6. The quantities are orientation values and apply to a pumpkin with a diameter of approx. 20-25 cm.
