Ingredients for Prepping the Pumpkin

Black Pepper Powder - Half Teaspoon

Garlic - 10 Cloves

Rosemary

Olive Oil - 1 Tablespoon

Ingredients for Cooking the Mushrooms (Optional)

Mushroom - 200 Grams

Water as needed

Cashew Cream - 3-4 tablespoons (Optional)

Steps

Step 1: Scrape the pumpkin on the top so it absorbs all the condiments, add rosemary, salt, black pepper powder, cloves of garlic. Add a good drizzle of olive oil, then bake in oven over 175 C for 45 -50 minutes

Step 2: While the pumpkin is getting cooked, let’s prepare the mushrooms, this is completely optional but adds a great umami flavor and a great combination with pumpkin soup. Heat a pan and add 1 teaspoon of oil. Add 2-3 cloves of finely chopped garlic. Cook the garlic over low heat for 2 minutes, then add mushrooms to the pan.

The mushrooms will start to release the water and you can easily cook them over medium heat

Add half teaspoon of salt or salt as per taste. Followed by pepper

Mix and cook for 5-7 minutes

Step 3: Once the pumpkin is cooked, start to scrape the cooked pumpkin from the skin

Step 4: For the final cooking process. Add oil to the pan, around 1 and half teaspoon

Add 1 medium chopped onion, cook it till it’s translucent. Add the cooked garlic back to the pan, add half teaspoon of nutmeg, add the cooked pumpkin,

Then add water or vegetable broth and cook till it starts to boil

Once the mixture starts to boil, turn the heat to low and add 3-4 tablespoons of cashew cream, but it’s completely optional

Give it a mix. Add around 1 and half teaspoon of salt or as per your taste

Step 5: Mix everything and then blend

Serve it with the cooked mushrooms or just like that, it’s perfect

Dress it up with the cashew cream, pumpkin or flax seed and serve

This recipe is perfect for lunch, dinner and even freeze really well and can be meal prepped.
