- 1 whole pumpkin cubed
- 1 leek sliced
- 2 garlic cloves minved
- 1 can chickpeas drained
- 1 tsp moroccan spice
- 2 tbsp miso paste
- 2 cups vegetable stock
- 1 cup water
- 1 tsp smoked paprika
Cut the pumpkin into cubes and roast at 180° C for one hour. Then, remove the lid for the last 20 mins to brown.
In a soup pot, saute the leek and garlic in a little water until the leeks are softened.
Add all other ingredients, boil, and simmer for five minutes.
Using a stick blender, pulse the soup until it smooths out the pumpkin but not to the point that all chickpeas are blended.
Served topped with a swirl of cashew cream (see notes below).
