Ingredients

  • Add roughly chopped carrot and squash to the pan and season with salt
  • Add a couple of sprigs of fresh thyme
  • Next add low fat coconut milk and 2 litres of vegetable stock and the black pepper, bring to the boil. Reduce the heat.
  • Taste and Season with salt and black pepper.
  • Blend the soup with a immersion blender or in a food processor until smooth and top with toasted pumpkin seeds and chill flakes. Enjoy!
