MAGIC SAUCE:
2 red chili peppers (deseeded and roughly chopped)
1 red bell pepper (roughly chopped)
2 cloves garlic
1 tsp salt
1 tsp cumin seeds
1 tsp coriander seeds
1/4 tsp smoked paprika
1 tbsp olive oil
SOUP:
2 tbs olive oil
2 yellow onions (peeled and chopped)
salt (to taste)
1 large pumpkin (or butternut squash, seeded, peeled, and chopped)
4 cups vegetable stock
1 cup coconut milk
15 oz cannellini beans (rinsed and drained)
2 tbsp "Magic Sauce" (or harissa paste)
2 tbsp cilantro, fresh (for garnish)

Steps:

  • To make the "magic sauce", toast the cumin and coriander seeds in a frying pan over medium, heat until fragrant. Set aside to cool. Once cooled add to a food processor and process until a powder forms. Add the remaining ingredients and process until you have a smooth paste. Decant into a clean jar and refrigerate.
  • To make the soup, heat a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the olive oil and onions along with a pinch of salt. Fry the onions until golden. Add 2 tbsp of the "magic sauce", and cook for 1 minute or until fragrant. Add the pumpkin and toss in the onions and sauce and allow to brown slightly.
  • Add the vegetable stock and beans. Bring to a boil, before reducing to a simmer for 10 minutes, or until the pumpkin is tender. Add the coconut milk and cook for another 5 minutes.
  • Remove the saucepan from the heat and, using a hand held blender, blend the soup until smooth. Serve with a drizzle of coconut milk and fresh cilantro.

WHITE BEAN & PUMPKIN SOUP (VEG)



White Bean & Pumpkin Soup (Veg) image

I started out intending to make a Cuban bean and pumpkin stew from one of Madhur Jaffrey's books. I didn't have enough of the ingredients on hand to get the full Cuban flair, so I merged the base of navy beans and pumpkin with another MJ recipe to make this simple yet hearty and satisfying soup. Note, this calls for dried beans, soaking overnight is preferable but you can use the quick method too.

Categories     Pumpkin

Time 1h30m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 1/2 cups dried navy beans
4 tablespoons olive oil
1 onion, diced
4 cloves garlic, minced
2 bay leaves
1/2 teaspoon sea salt (up to 1 tsp depending on your broth)
4 cups fresh pumpkin, chopped (about a 1 inch dice)
4 cups vegetable broth (up to 5 depending on how you like it)
1 teaspoon dried rosemary
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1 teaspoon dried sage

Steps:

  • Soak the beans overnight in plenty of water. To use the quick method, rinse the beans and then add them to a large pot with enough water to cover them by about an inch. Bring to a boil, let boil for 5 minutes then turn off the heat and leave covered for an hour. Either method, drain the beans when you're ready to start!
  • Warm the olive oil in a soup pot or dutch oven over medium heat. Add in the diced onion and saute for about 5 minutes. Add in the garlic and continue to cook for another 5 minutes or so.
  • To the cooking onions and garlic, add in the bay leaves, salt and herbs. A note on the herbs: I crush dried whole herbs saved from the garden, you could use fresh, either way chop well. If using ground versions, use much less, around 1/3 tsp each.
  • Once the onions are nicely translucent and lightly browned add in the beans, pumpkin and broth. Adjust seasoning and bring to a boil.
  • Reduce heat to medium low, cover and leave to cook for about 45 minutes, stirring from time to time. Remove the lid for the last 15 minutes of cooking if you want to reduce the amount of broth and have it more stew like.
  • If you used the quick soak method for the beans, it will need to cook slightly longer, about an hour.

This golden-toned soup is wonderfully warming on crisp autumn days. "Unlike most creamy pumpkin soups, this one is especially hearty, with additional vegetables such as potatoes, carrots and corn," notes Joan Conover, Easton, Pennsylvania. "For fun autumn flair, serve the soup in hollowed-out pumpkin shells. My boys love it that way."

Tips:

  • Choose the right type of pumpkin: For this soup, it's best to use a sugar pumpkin or a butternut squash. These pumpkins are sweet and have a smooth texture, which makes them ideal for pureeing.

  • Use a variety of beans: This soup is a great way to use up leftover beans. You can use any type of bean you like, but some good options include cannellini beans, navy beans, or black beans.
  • Add some spices: To give the soup a warm and flavorful taste, add some spices such as cumin, paprika, and chili powder.
  • Serve the soup with a garnish: A dollop of sour cream, a sprinkle of chopped cilantro, or a drizzle of olive oil can add a nice finishing touch to the soup.

Conclusion:

This white bean pumpkin soup is a delicious and satisfying meal that is perfect for a chilly day. It's also a great way to use up leftover pumpkin and beans. With its creamy texture, sweet flavor, and warm spices, this soup is sure to be a hit with the whole family.
