This one here is a big favourite of ours, especially in winter as it is just a delicious and incredibly easy to make soup!
You don't have to use the cumin if you want any herbs or spices of your choice will be just as good!
So all you are going to need is:
1 Butternut Pumpkin
2 Leeks
3 Potatos
1l of Vegetable Stock
1Tblsp of Cumin seeds
Method:
Roughly cut the pumpkin, potato and leek and place into a pot. Add the stock along with as much water is needed to fully cover the vegetables, add cumin seeds and a pinch of pepper and bring to the boil, turn stove down and let simmer for around an hour, check that vegies are cooked using a fork and if they are nice and soft blend soup untill thick and creamy and add salt and pepper to taste.
Place soup in a bowl with a dollop of natural yoghurt, throw on a few croutons and a sprinkling of parsley and enjoy!
I made some croutons to go with it which were awesome, super tasty and crunchy and easy as to make as well, all you need is a nice wholegrain sourdough some olive oil and a few herbs to season, all you have to do is cube the bread into roughly 1cm cubes throw in bowl with whatever herbs you would like to season with, then pour olive oil about 50ml over the bread cubes add salt to taste, mix and then throw in the oven on high for around 20 to 30 minutes and you will have an amazingly tasty addition to any soup or salad!
