Pumpkin Soup 4 People Ingredients ■ 1 medium-sized Onion ■ 2 Garlic cloves ■ 10 – 20 g fresh Ginger ■ 3 tbsp Rapeseed oil ■ 400 g Pumpkin (ideally suited is Hokkaido pumpkin, because the shell becomes soft when cooked and it does not need to be peeled) ■ 250 – 300 ml Coconut milk ■ 250 – 500 ml Vegetable stock ■ Juice of ½ of an Orange ■ some dry white wine ■ 1 tsp. Sugar ■ Salt, Pepper Preparation

1) Peel the onion and chop them with the liquidiser, do the same with the garlic.

Peel and finely chop the ginger. Firstly, sauté the onion and ginger in hot oil. After 2 minutes add the garlic and sauté this also.

2) Thoroughly clean the pumpkin under warm water with a vegetable brush,

then cut it into 2 – 3 cm cubes. (If a pumpkin other than Hokkaido pumpkin is being used, it must be peeled in addition). Add the diced pumpkin to the onions and ginger and sauté them also. Fill with half the amount of coconut milk and sufficient vegetable broth to cover the pumpkin well. Cook for approx. 20 – 25 minutes with the lid on until soft. Mix everything with a hand blender until smooth. Thereby, add additional coconut milk until the soup has the correct soft and creamy consistency.

that it has both a sweet and a balanced sour-salty note in addition to the sharp flavour.GB

1) Wash and clean the strawberries, at the same time removing the green

stems. Drain well in a colander, so that you are rid of excess water and the spread is not too watery. Slice larger strawberries into small pieces.

3) Add a dash of lemon juice.

4) If desired, scrape out and add the pulp of a vanilla pod.

cap and firmly seal it.■ 36
