    How to Make Pumpkin Curry Soup

    1. Start by grabbing a large pot and heat oil on medium heat. Sauté your onions for 3-4 minutes or until they become translucent. 
    2. Next add in the garlic, curry, ginger, coriander, and the salt. Stir and cook for 1-2 minutes until the spices are fragrant. 
    3. Then you will add in the pumpkin, broth, and coconut milk and soy sauce. Mix well. 
    4. Bring the pumpkin soup to a boil then reduce the heat to simmer. Cover and cook as directed. 
    5. Once done, top with pumpkin seeds and enjoy.

    Helpful Tips for Pumpkin Curry Soup

    Use a Heavy Pot 

    Reach for a Dutch oven or other sturdy pot for this pumpkin soup. Thicker pots are better at retaining an even temperature, without hot spots, which is helpful with thicker soups like this.

    Sauté Onions 

    Make sure you take the time to sauté your onions for this soup. While you can skip through this step, it's worth the extra few minutes to brown the onions which really elevates the flavor of the soup. 

    Pumpkin Puree 

    You can make homemade pumpkin puree very easily if you want to. If not, you can use a canned pumpkin puree. Just make sure it is 100% pumpkin, not a pumpkin pie filling with added sweetners.

    Variations to Pumpkin Curry Soup

    Curry Paste 

    Instead of curry powder you can substitute 2 tablespoons of red curry paste if you prefer. It will alter the flavor a bit, and tends to be a bit spicier. You can add more or less depending on your preference. 

    Garnishes

    There are endless ways you can dress up your pumpkin curry soup. Top it with pepitas, fresh chopped cilantro, diced red onions, or a swirl of non-dairy yogurt.

    The Spice Factor 

    Add some red chili flakes to up the heat in this curried pumpkin soup. If you have only a few spice lovers in the family, you can top individual bowls of soup with chili flakes or sliced red chile peppers.

    FAQs

    How long can pumpkin curry soup be stored? 

    This soup needs to be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator. It will store for 3-5 days in the fridge. Just warm up in the microwave or on the stovetop. 

    Can you freeze this soup? 

    You can freeze the pumpkin curry soup for 3-4 months. Simply place in a freezer bag or airtight container. If you place it in a rigid container, leave room for the soup to expand a bit once it freezes. Then thaw in the fridge overnight before you heat it up.
