Chilled Curried Pumpkin Soup “Milkshakes”
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 medium white onion, chopped
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 2-inch piece fresh ginger, peeled and minced
- 1 tablespoon curry powder
- 3 cups gluten-free vegetable or chicken stock
- 1 15-ounce can pure pumpkin puree
- Kosher or fine sea salt
- Freshly ground black pepper
- 1 14-ounce can full-fat coconut milk
- 1½ cups heavy cream
- 1 cup sour cream
Instructions
- Heat olive oil in a soup pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until soft, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic, ginger, and curry powder, and cook, stirring, for another minute. Add the broth, pumpkin, ½ teaspoon salt, and ½ teaspoon pepper. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer, uncovered, for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Take off the heat and stir in the coconut milk. Let cool. Puree the mixture in a blender until smooth. Refrigerate until cold, at least 4 hours. Taste and add more salt and pepper, if desired.

- To serve, pour about 4 ounces of soup into a small glass or mason jar and top with a dollop of the whipped cream
