Bon Appétit highlights a simple three-ingredient pumpkin soup recipe designed for ease and speed. The soup combines pumpkin purée, curry paste, and coconut milk, taking approximately 15 minutes to prepare.
The recipe, part of Bon Appétit’s “It’s That Simple” series, focuses on minimal ingredients and relaxed techniques. The publication notes the increasing prevalence of pumpkin-flavored items each fall and presents this soup as a comforting alternative. The combination of the three ingredients, pumpkin purée, curry paste, and coconut milk, creates a cozy flavor profile.
The process begins by heating oil in a pot, followed by the addition of curry paste. Bon Appétit recommends Thai Kitchen for a gentle warmth or Maesri for a spicier flavor. Cooking the paste until it turns a terra-cotta hue and becomes fragrant is emphasized to unlock its flavors, such as chiles, shallots, and lemongrass. Next, pumpkin purée and coconut milk are added, along with water, and the mixture is simmered. Salt can be added to taste.
While the recipe is complete at this stage, the article suggests optional additions like swirling coconut milk on top, stirring in spinach, or garnishing with cilantro or mint. Poached shrimp can also be added for protein. The publication suggests this soup is intended to become an annual favorite, easily prepared even during busy fall evenings.
