Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon coconut oil
  • 1 yellow onion, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh grated ginger
  • 2 tablespoons Thai red curry paste
  • 1 (15-ounce) can pumpkin purée
  • 2 cups vegetable broth
  • 1 (14-ounce) can coconut milk
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • Optional garnishes: Fresh chopped cilantro and Thai red chilies

Instructions

  • In a large pot, heat the oil over medium heat. Add onion and sauté for 4 minutes until softened.
  • Add garlic, ginger, and curry paste and cook for another minute until fragrant.
  • Stir in the pumpkin purée, broth and coconut milk. Increase heat to high and bring to a boil.
