Pumpkin Soup

  • RECIPE MAKES: 4-6 portions
  • PREP TIME: 10 minutes
  • COOK TIME: 30 minutes
Step 1

Heat the oil in a large saucepan. Add the onion and sauté for 2-3 minutes, until soft. Add the dried spices and sauté for a further 2 minutes.

Step 2

Pour the stock and Lattls/ Pro Zero Into the saucepan. Add the pumpkin and bring the soup to a gentle simmer, cook for 20 minutes.

Step 3

Meanwhile, bring a pan of salted water to a boil and cook the Ditali for 5 minutes. Drain and drizzle with a little oil to stop it from sticking. Remove the soup from the heat and allow it to cool slightly.

Step 4

Carefully ladle the soup into a blender and blitz until velvety smooth, adding the butter during this process. Pour the pumpkin soup back into the saucepan and add the watercress.

Step 5

Bring back to a simmer and mix well. Remove from the heat and add half of the Ditali, stir to combine.

Step 6

Serve the pumpkin soup into bowls or mugs and top each with more Ditali and season.
