Nik2WIN - Oh, my goodness, this is utterly delicious. I can't get pumpkin at this time of year so I used butternut squash and I couldn't get the full 6 cups of water in the TMX so I used 4, I also couldn't get all the squash in so after the soup was made I transferred it to a big saucepan and blended the rest of the squash in the TMX and added it along with an extra tin of creamed sweetcorn. I like my soup thick. The very best bit tho' was that I'd just used the TMX to made the stock so I didn't even have to wash the bowl out, I just started the soup straight away using the bits of stock paste that were left in the bowl. Cutting down on washing up time AND using the very dregs of the stock paste.
Cecilia - Just thought I'd let you know that I've made this soup for lunch today. Sneaked a little taste and I love it. Thank you.
McMich - I made this soup today and it was lovely. I roasted the garlic along with the pumpkin and only added four cups of water and added a final cup of boiling water after putting into serving bowl. Turned out well.
JD - This will fool you, looks more like a beef soup than a pumpkin but tastes delicious. I sort of browned my pumpkin a bit much and used caramelised garlic - this is the result. I'll be mixing some cream into the mixture before I serve it to lighten it a bit.
Hally - I have just finished a bowl of this, yum. CP you do seem to have a way with pumpkin. Love this & your dip.
Slight changes
Just over 4 cups water
Used chicken paste with the water
Only had a small can of creamed corn 310g.
Just fantastic soup, thank you CP
Moo2 - I too made this for lunch and really enjoyed it. I used 4 cups water and it was just the right thickness for me as I like a thickish soup. Thanks for the recipe CP.
courton - I made this yesterday and it got the thumbs up. I would, however, cook the pumpkin a little longer next time.
knittercook - Made this today, halved the recipe and it was delicious on a cold day in Tassie.
leon9 - Absolutely divine especially with that subtle taste of chilly.

Nice one CP63.
6ish cups plus the 1 kg of pumpkin plus 415g can might be overfilling the TM bowl? Maybe add stock/water after pumpkin, onion etc to the 1.5 litre mark, then there will be enough room for the corn.
-
I thought it was a lot too Thermomixer - you could hold back some of the stock and add that once the soup is cooked and transferred to a container. I do that with my goulash soup.
-
Good pick up, it nearly fills it to the brim. What I did was grab a cup or so of the mixture with some punkin in it out of the TM bowl (before the blending, and mashed it up roughly on the side), and then added it back after dishing up a plate or two to hungry mortals. You don't really notice, as the corn is chunky as well. I thought that I would leave it up to the individual as some people throw in more or less according to which way the wind is blowing ;) ;)

Does anyone have a photo of this one for the Favourites cookbook?

No, but I'll try and get one when I make it this week.
A tweak that I have when making roasted pumpkin soup is not to bother peeling the pumpkin. Just scrape it out of the skin when it's cooked.

I'm poorly sick today so very pleased by little things .... ;D

Hope you feel better soon Nik :-*

butternut squash we call butternut pumpkin here, so that would be still suitable. I probably tend to use Japanese Pumpkin because it is so easy to peel, but Kent is probably the cheapest but just a bugger to peel cos it is so tough. All are fine. Somewhere I have a recipe (don't know if I have posted) with some chilli which is great for clearing the sinuses ;)

...its popular today - great! glad everyone is enjoying their bowls of soup :-*

I cooked mine until it was nice and caramelised courton, it did make the soup darker after blitzing though but that doesn't deter from it at all.
-
Yes I think I needed to have done that...hungryfamily waiting for dinner stopped me!
-
Will add this to the file.
We are having a competition amongst family and friends to grow the biggest pumpkin. So far the competition is very serious. But I'm now wondering what we are going to do with all that pumpkin. Last year we grow 3 large ones ranging from 25kg to 45kg in size. Nothing compared to the one in the paper the other day which was 385kg. But I got very sick of pumpkin after a couple of weeks.
-
I'm sure you would keiramax but there are quite a few different soups on the forum using pumpkin, there's a pumpkin fruit cake, pumpkin pie and you could always just cook and mash the pumpkin and freeze it in batches for later use. Good luck with the competition.
-
cooking times may vary. when I cut a pumpkin I tend to cut along the grooves, and then probably about 4 pieces of pumpkin
-
Made this today, halved the recipe and it was delicious on a cold day in Tassie :-\
-
Glad it warmed your tummy :D

I had a whole Jap pumpkin given to me some time ago so I roasted most of it to make a couple of recipes, one of which was this lovely soup of CP's. I added 3 triangles of cream cheese at the end, delicious.

I'm bad and haven't made this yet. Maybe this winter.
