my pumpkin soup (in a pumpkin) on this Thanksgiving

Happy turkey day, friends and foes.

My lovely pumpkin recipe for today.

Pulp from 1 big and gorgeous pumpkin that you roast in the oven for 45 minutes in oven at 200 °C (drizzle some olive oil), add it to a big pot with a big knob of butter and swirl of olive oil, pump in there 3 garlic cloves (roughly chopped), 2 white onions (roughly chopped), 2 sage leaves, and one sweet potato (roughly chopped). Sauté for 3-4 minutes. Top off with vegetable broth just to cover the vegetables. Season away with salt, pepper, and cook this beauty off for about 15 minutes over medium heat. Give it a good blitz (purée), let it simmer for another 5 minutes. 

I tend to serve it with a spoonful of Greek yogurt or mascarpone folks.

Give thanks. And smile.
