Pumpkin puree soup is a very appetizing and easy to prepare first course. The main ingredient of the soup, as you might guess, is pumpkin, which, along with other components of the soup, which can be very diverse, is usually first cooked until tender, and then pureed with a blender. Recipes can be different: pumpkin cream soup with cream and potatoes will be delicate and velvety, but with the addition of chicken, pumpkin soup will become hearty and rich. We offer you several options for preparing this delicious golden first course.

Very often nothing is added to pumpkin from vegetables except fried onions and carrots, but this recipe will talk about making pumpkin puree soup with the addition of not only roasted onion and carrot, but also potatoes. Thanks to the potatoes, such pumpkin soup turns out to be more tender and has a less pronounced pumpkin flavor, so it will definitely appeal to both pumpkin lovers and those who are not very positive about this vegetable.

Spicy pumpkin soup will delight you with its color, taste and aroma. Most often, pumpkin soup is cooked with the ubiquitous potatoes, but this time we will do without them, take just a little onion, carrots and garlic. This recipe has completely different accents - the spicy cream used to stir the pumpkin soup, as well as toasted bacon and grated cheese.

Yield: 2 servings.

Ingredients

  • pumpkin - 500 g,
  • garlic - 1-2 cloves,
  • onion - 1 small
  • carrots - 1 small or half large,
  • butter - 2 tbsp. spoons,
  • olive oil - 3 tbsp spoons,
  • provencal herbs - 1 tsp,
  • cream 10-20% - at least 50 ml,
  • salt / pepper - to taste
  • hard cheese - 50 g,
  • bacon - 50 g.

How to cook pumpkin soup in a slow cooker

Prepare the spiced cream first.
Pour 50 ml of cream into a container, add the Provencal herbs and bring to a boil. Set aside, if done on the stove, or pour from the multicooker bowl (be sure to then wash) into another container.

Pour olive oil into a bowl, add butter and peeled garlic cloves, cut in half lengthwise. Turn on the extinguishing mode. It is not necessary to set the time, but if you set it automatically, you will have to follow the process. As soon as the garlic smells all over the kitchen and takes on a slightly golden hue, remove it from the multicooker.

While the garlic gives off its flavor to the oil, peel and chop the onions and carrots into small pieces. After removing the garlic, send the vegetables to fry on the same mode. They should also only slightly gild, so watch and stir.

Coarsely chop the peeled pumpkin and add to the vegetables in a bowl. Stir, close the lid, set the simmering mode and 30 minutes of time.

Fry thin slices of bacon on the stove in a dry skillet until crisp.

Transfer the finished pumpkin from the multicooker saucepan to a regular one and immediately, hot, punch with a blender until the consistency of a delicate puree.

Pour through a strainer to remove the herbs, cream. While pouring in, mix gently and watch the thickening of the soup. All the cream may go away and even have to be added, or some amount will remain.

Season with salt and pepper to taste. Place the pot of pumpkin soup on the fire and preheat (no need to bring to a boil). Pour into bowls, lay out the bacon pieces and coarsely grated cheese. Call to the table!

On a note

  • instead of cream, you can take 3.2% milk or meat or vegetable broth;
  • for spiciness, you can put a small piece of hot pepper in pumpkin soup when serving;
  • if there is no bacon on hand, crackers will perfectly replace it.
