Pumpkin and cumin soup

Here's a soup for when you are feeling Hallow'een-y. I don't particularly like soup but this is lovely.

Fry one or two chopped onions over moderate heat until soft. Add peeled, chopped pumpkin (approx 2 kg before peeling) and three crushed garlic cloves. Allow to cook for about 10 minutes. Add one tbsp soft brown sugar and 1tbsp cumin, mix well.

Add about a litre of vegetable stock and simmer until pumpkin is soft (about 30-40mins).

Remove from heat and blend until smooth.

Scatter with pumpkin seeds before serving.

Eat and enjoy.

PS picture doesn't do it justice - it didn't last long.
