Ingredients
  

  • 60 g butter
  • 1 medium onion peeled and coarsely chopped
  • 1 small Hokkaido peeled and cut into small cubes (about 500-600 g)
  • 1 large potato 200 g, peeled and cut in cubes
  • 1 large carrot 100 g, peeled and cut in cubes
  • 800 ml Low-salt vegetable stock or hot water
  • 3/4 teaspoon salt or to taste
  • ¼ teaspoon white pepper
  • 1 teaspoon curry
  • 1 small piece ginger grated

Instructions
 

  • In a medium-sized pot heat the butter over medium heat, and sauté the vegetables for about 10 minutes or until onions are wilted and vegetables are a bit broken, stirring occasionally. Add the vegetable stock and bring to a boil over high heat.
  • Reduce heat to medium-low and cook for about 30 minutes until vegetables are tender. Purée with a hand mixer. If the soup is too thick, add some hot water. Season with the salt, pepper, curry and ginger, and cook for about 10-15 minutes to blend the flavours together. Adjust taste if required. If soup is too thick, add little hot water.
  • Garnish your bowl with some pumpkin seeds and pumpkin seed oil. Serve hot.
