The spices in this soup really marry up well and make this the tasty, flavorful soup it is. I can guarantee you will impress even the fussiest of eaters. If you can use organic vegetables, the soup will have a glorious color and taste more intense. Most people cannot tell that you have used coconut milk instead of cream. This makes it not only taste good, but full of all the health benefits of the coconut. Add a dollop of plain Greek yogurt or some chopped parsley, or drizzle with good quality, cold-pressed extra virgin olive oil. Enjoy and taste the golden color of the sun!

Ingredients

1 large sweet potato
1 small pumpkin or buttercup squash, peeled and cut into 1-inch cubes (4 cups)
3 large carrots, peeled and cut in half
2 large red onions, halved
¼ cup cold-pressed extra-virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon flaked sea salt, or to taste
½ teaspoon ground allspice
1 pinch ground white pepper
1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1 pinch ground black pepper
4 cups chicken stock
2 (13.5 ounce) cans coconut milk

Steps:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Wrap sweet potato in aluminum foil; place on an oven-safe dish to catch drips.
Bake in the preheated oven until soft, about 45 minutes.
While the sweet potato is roasting, place pumpkin, carrots, and onions on a baking pan. Brush with olive oil; sprinkle with salt, allspice, and white pepper.
Bake in the preheated oven until soft, 30 to 40 minutes.
Peel the sweet potato and squash when cool enough to handle. Transfer to a large saucepan; add carrots, onions, nutmeg, cumin, coriander, ginger, salt, and pepper. Stir in chicken stock and coconut milk. Bring soup to a boil; reduce heat and simmer until fragrant, about 20 minutes. Remove from heat.
Puree soup using an immersion blender until smooth.

PUMPKIN COCONUT MILK SOUP

Pumpkin Coconut Milk Soup image

I modified another Allrecipes pumpkin soup recipe past recognition and decided to add it here to share. It has a little bit of a kick to it from the chili powder, and the orange juice and pumpkin pie spice really bring out the flavors. It was originally based on 'Daddy's Pumpkin Soup.' I think some lemon juice or orange zest would do as well for the orange juice.

Time 45m

Yield 5

Number Of Ingredients 11

Ingredients

2 tablespoons butter
1 onion, chopped
1 teaspoon minced garlic
2 cups water
2 chicken bouillon cubes
2 (14 ounce) cans pumpkin puree
1 (14 ounce) can coconut milk
2 teaspoons ground ginger
2 tablespoons orange juice
1 ½ teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
1 ½ teaspoons chili powder

Steps:

Melt the butter in a large pot over medium heat; cook and stir the onion and garlic in the melted butter until softened, about 5 minutes. Stir the water and chicken bouillon cubes into the mixture; cook and stir until the bouillon cubes have dissolved, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir the pumpkin puree, coconut milk, ginger, orange juice, pumpkin pie spice, and chili powder into the liquid. Bring the soup to a simmer, and cook until heated through, 5 to 7 minutes.
Pour the soup into a blender pitcher to no more than half full. Hold down the lid of the blender firmly in place. Start the blender, using a few quick pulses to get the soup moving before leaving it on to puree. Puree in batches until smooth, and pour into a clean pot. Alternately, you can use a stick blender and puree the soup in the pot.
Return the pureed soup to medium heat; bring to a simmer and cook another 10 minutes.

Tips:

Use fresh pumpkin: Fresh pumpkin will give your soup a more vibrant flavor and color. If you can't find fresh pumpkin, you can use canned pumpkin, but be sure to drain it well before adding it to the soup.
Roast the pumpkin before adding it to the soup: Roasting the pumpkin will help to bring out its natural sweetness and flavor. You can roast the pumpkin in the oven or on a grill.
Use a variety of spices: Pumpkin soup is a great opportunity to experiment with different spices. Some popular spices that go well with pumpkin include cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and allspice.
Add a creamy element: Coconut milk is a great way to add a creamy element to pumpkin soup. You can also use heavy cream or sour cream, but be sure to add them at the end of cooking to prevent them from curdling.
Garnish with something special: A dollop of whipped cream, a sprinkle of chopped nuts, or a drizzle of honey can all help to make your pumpkin soup look and taste even more special.

Conclusion:

Pumpkin coconut milk soup is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It's also a great way to use up leftover pumpkin. With its creamy texture and warm, inviting spices, pumpkin coconut milk soup is sure to be a hit with everyone at your table.
