Ingredients

Servings
  • 2 Tablespoons butter
  • 1 large yellow onion diced
  • 1 large carrot diced
  • 1 Tablespoon garlic minced
  • 1 Tablespoon ginger fresh grated
  • 2 teaspoons yellow curry powder mild
  • 1/2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
  • 6 cups vegetable broth
  • one ounce can pumpkin puree
  • 1 cup red lentil rinsed
  • one ounce can coconut milk reserve 2 tablespoons for drizzling on top of soup if desired, light
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt plus more to taste
  • black pepper freshly ground
  • Pepitas for garnishing

Instructions

  1. In a large stockpot or Dutch oven, melt the butter. Add in the onions and carrots. Saute until the onions are soft.
  2. Add in the garlic, ginger, curry, and pumpkin pie spice. Saute until the garlic is browned and fragrant.
  3. Add the broth, deglazing the pot by scraping the bottom of the pot to remove any browned bits.
  4. Stir in the pumpkin puree and lentils.
  5. Bring to a low boil and reduce the heat to medium. Partially cover with the lid and cook for 40 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the lentils have softened.
  6. Add in the coconut milk and continue to cook for another 5 minutes.
  7. Remove and serve, topped with the extra coconut milk and pepitas if desired.

Notes

  • How long the lentils take to cook can vary. Cook until they are softened all the way through
