Pumpkin Soup

This rich soup is a great autumn dish frequently requested by my husband. The coriander adds a lemony flavor, blending beautifully with the sweetness of the pumpkin. Rustic traditionally fermented sourdough bread is perfect for dipping and makes the soup a satisfying meal.

To roast pumpkin: Wash pumpkin and cut in half. Scrape out seeds and pulp. Make sure you save the seeds for roasting later. Quarter your pumpkin. You can cut it into smaller pieces if needed. Roast your yam at the same time. Remember to pierce the yam before roasting so it does not explode. Place in a roasting pan and bake at 350 degrees until a fork easily pierces the flesh. Allow pumpkin and yam to cool then remove skin.

Enjoy!

1 large onion, chopped
