Roasted Crown Prince Pumpkin soup with potato
Pumpkins are EVERYwhere right now...of all shapes, colours and sizes. In the past, I was always intimidated to try new varieties but recently I got to taste test a few different kinds and decided to be brave and try to make a soup from a kind of pumpkin I have never used before. I wanted to do a batch cook so I could have some for the freezer so went for a large crown prince pumpkin of course you can use any other kind of pumpkin you like.

- 1
Leave the hard skin on. Cut your crown prince pumpkin into quarters and remove all the seeds.
- 2
Cut into smaller chunks and place in a roasting tin, drizzle with a little oil and place in your whole garlic cloves. Season with salt and pepper, thyme and chilli flakes. Roast in the preheated oven at 180 for 30 minutes.

Whilst the pumpkin roasts in the oven, wash and slice your leak, add to a large pot with a little oil and gently fry on low heat. if you are still waiting on the pumpkin to come out of the oven turn off the pot until you are ready so the leeks don't burn once cooked.

Remove the roasted pumpkin from the oven and scoop the flesh away from the hard skin. Add the pumpkin to your pot with the leeks and top with your vegetable stock. Bring up to a boil. (I used 1 vegetable stock cube)

As this comes up to a boil, peel and dice your potatoes and add to the pot as well. If the 500ml of stock is not enough to cover everything then just top up with a little bit more water. Allow boiling for 15 minutes until the potatoes cook.
- 6
Remove from the heat, season to taste and blend to a smooth creamy soup. If it is too thick add a little more water to get the consistency and thickness you would like. I kept mines quite thick as I liked the creamy texture without having to add additional cream.
Serve with fresh bread and butter and maybe some extra chilli on top if you like it spicy.

My large pumpkin made a huge pot of soup so it was the perfect batch recipe to make other meals for later in the week to put in the freezer. I portioned out three meals into freezer bags from the leftovers. these will sit in my freezer for another cold autumnal or winter's day to enjoy again and again.

Frozen Golden Soup Dumplings – Steam Oven Recipe Frozen Golden Soup Dumplings – Steam Oven Recipe
This time, I used Golden Soup Dumplings from a group buy and cooked them with the Panasonic steam oven NN-BS1000 using the steam function. You can steam the frozen dumplings directly without thawing—super convenient and quick! The soup inside stays perfectly sealed, so nothing goes to waste. If you have a steam oven, you have to give this a try! For more, check out the Fangrong Yogurt DIY Yogurt Blog at http://www.blog-yogurt.com/category/heart

Roasted pumpkin soup Roasted pumpkin soup
Pumpkin is one of the vegetables actually grown in Trinidad and Tobago and so when I wanted to make a dish that focuses on a product sourced from a local farm, pumpkin soup was the first idea to come. I love its creamy texture, versatility and that it's very easy to make a version that looks and tastes like a professional chef made it. I saw a version of this (butternut squash) made by Antoni on an episode of QE and was so intrigued I decided to replicate it.

Leek and pumpkin soup with lime Leek and pumpkin soup with lime
In this kind-of-autumn soup, the leek is the main star. The pumpkin purèe acts as a flavour booster, rather than overpowering the delicate taste of leeks. Spash of lime juice at the end really brightens up everything.

I love the cheerful color of pumpkin and its taste, be it savory or sweet. My favorite pumpkin is the 'hokkaido' which you can eat with the peal/skin. In pumpkin soup, I am looking for a smooth, silky, but not watery result enhanced with enriching flavors of spring onions, fresh ginger root and a slight hint of (cappuccino-froth) light cream

I love pumpkin! Salad, Nimono (stew), Fry, Boil... and the next recipe is Soup! This recipe is very easy. You don't need a mixer. According to your taste, you can thicken the soup with flour. Or add more milk. Put in a small amount of soy sauce to enrich the taste.
