Roasted pumpkin soup

This is one of my kids favourite and I keep making it often for their evening snack. It’s very easy to make it and of course tasty too. All you need is an oven and a blender :)

Pumpkin - 500 gms

Onion - one big one 

Olive oil - 2 tbsps.

Milk - 2 cups

Salt and pepper

Fresh cream or cheese bits or grated cheese

Method

Preheat the oven to 200 degrees Celsius

Wash and peel the pumpkin into cubes and arrange in the baking tray. Peel and chop the onions also into cubes and throw in the tray. Drizzle 2 tablespoons of olive oil over the vegs and mix and spread it evenly in the tray.

Now keep the tray in the oven and bake for around 30 minutes or until the vegetables are soft when poked with a fork.

Remove the tray from the oven and let it cool for couple of minutes.

Once the vegs are cooled throw it in a blender and pour milk to blend it 

Blend it and then strain.

You can bring back the mixture over the stove to make it hot or warm and then garnish with grated cheese, salt and pepper and serve hot!

You can replace milk with veg stock or chicken stock and serve the soup with sour cream as well !!
