Pumpkin soup is always popular and this soup adds the sweetness of sweet potato and carrot with the punch of chilli. If you are going to make your own vegetable stock, allow an extra 70 minutes.  There are some good vegetable stocks off the shelf but nothing tastes quite the same as fresh stock.  If you are short for time go for a good quality off the shelf vegetable stock and you will still get a good result.

  • 2 cups pumpkin – peeled, deseeded, rinsed, diced

  • 400g / 14oz cannellini beans – rinsed, drained
