Roasted Thai Pumpkin Soup Low Fat Recipes

Steps:

• Blend all soup ingredients together in a high-speed blender, in batches if needed. Blend until the pumpkin is completely pureed and the soup has a silky texture.
• To serve, pour soup into warm soup bowls. Place 2 teaspoons of marinated portobellos in the middle of each bowl. Decorate each soup with coconut cream, cilantro, and scallion slices.
• Combine the shoyu, olive oil, water, and ginger in a small bowl. Add the mushrooms and marinate at room temperature for at least 30 minutes. Drain mushrooms and use as directed.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Toss the pumpkin or squash in a roasting tin with half the oil and seasoning, then roast for 30 mins until golden and tender.
• Meanwhile, put the remaining oil in a pan with the onion, ginger and lemongrass. Gently cook for 8-10 mins until softened. Stir in the curry paste for 1 min, followed by the roasted pumpkin, all but 3 tbsp of the coconut milk and the stock. Bring to a simmer, cook for 5 mins, then fish out the lemongrass. Cool for a few mins, then whizz until smooth with a hand blender, or in a large blender in batches. Return to the pan to heat through, seasoning with salt, pepper, lime juice and sugar, if it needs it. Serve drizzled with the remaining coconut milk and scattered with chilli, if you like.
