Ingredients

  • 3 cloves garlic
  • ½ onion
  • 1 tbsp oil
  • 1 tbsp red curry paste
  • 500 g pumpkin flesh
  • 1 bouillon cube
  • 480 ml water
  • 60 ml coconut milk
  • ½ Thai chili
  • coriander, garnish to taste

Instructions

  • Heat oil in a pot over medium heat. Add garlic and diced onion. Cook for 2–3 minutes until soft and fragrant.
  • Stir in the red curry paste and cook for 1 minute to release its flavor. Add cubed pumpkin and stir to coat well.
  • Pour in the coconut milk, water, and add the bouillon cube. Simmer gently for 10 minutes, or until the pumpkin is soft and tender.
  • Use an immersion blender to blend the soup until creamy and smooth. (Or transfer to a blender in batches if preferred.) Leave a few chunks if you like texture.
  • Spoon into bowls and top with chopped coriander and sliced Thai chili (I use jinda). Serve hot and enjoy!
