Elevate your dinner with flavorful lentil and pumpkin soup.

Ingredients:

370g (1 1/2 cups) red lentils
1 brown onion, finely chopped
7.50 gm ground cumin
2 tsp ground coriander
1/2 tsp chilli powder
1/2 tsp ground turmeric
1.5kg butternut pumpkin, peeled, deseeded, cut into 1cm pieces
1.625L (6 1/2 cups) vegetable liquid stock
Salt & ground black pepper, to taste

Instructions:

Rinse the lentils in a sieve under cold running water.
In a large heavy-based saucepan over medium-high heat, heat the oil until shimmering. Sauté the onion for 5 minutes until soft. Add garlic, cumin, coriander, chilli powder, and turmeric, stir for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Combine the lentils with the onion mixture, then mix in the pumpkin and stock. Raise the heat to high and bring the mixture to a boil. Lower the heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer for about 15 minutes until the pumpkin and lentils are tender, stirring occasionally.
Roughly mash the pumpkin and lentils using a potato masher, then season with salt and pepper to taste.
