Sweet pumpkin, lightly spiced with Cajun Special Blend and blended together with onions, tomatoes and vegetable stock for a warming, tasty soup, ideal for halloween or bonfire night.

Method

Step 1

Melt the butter in a large saucepan and fry the pumpkin and onions for 5 minutes. Add the Perfect Shake Cajun Special Blend and tomatoes and cook for 3-4 minutes.

Step 2

Stir in the stock and bring to the boil. Cover and simmer for 30 minutes, until the pumpkin is tender.

Step 3

Allow to cool slightly, then purée in a food processor or liquidizer. Return to the pan, heat through and season to taste.

Step 4

Serve with crème fraîche and a parsley sprig. Sprinkle with a little extra Perfect Shake Cajun Special Blend and serve immediately. Great to serve outdoors at bonfires or on Halloween with crusty bread.
