Apple and Pumpkin Soup

I made this using left over pumpkin from a pumpkin soup my partner had made. I got the inspiration from another recipe I saw on the internet and thought I’d try it.

Ingredients

• 1 Apple peeled, cored and chopped
• 200g Pumpkin, peeled and chopped
• 1/4 Red onion
• 1 Garlic clove
• 1 tbsp Brown sugar
• 300 ml Boiling water
• 1 Chicken stock cube
• Less than 1/8 tsp of nutmeg, ginger and cinnamon

Serves 1 in a big bowl, or 2.

Method

1. Chop up the onion and fry with the garlic and a little oil
2. Add the pumpkin, apple, spices and sugar to the onion and fry for 5 minutes
3. Dissolve the stock in the boiling water and add to the pan
4. Bring to the boil, then simmer until the pumpkin is soft
5. Blend

Notes

• Add the apple later
• Try using vegetable stock
• Use different spices
• Use more onion (That’s all I had!)
• Use apple juice/cider as well as the stock
