Nothing warms the heart (and stomach) like a steaming bowl of soup on a cold day. This creamy pumpkin soup, with its rich orange color and a surprising hint of curry, combines the sweetness of pumpkin with the warmth of spices. A true flavor explosion and comfort food at its best!

- 200 milliliters coconut milk or cream
