Ingredients

Serves 4

1 Small pumpkin (or half a large one)
Onion (or a handful of shallots)
Celery, two sticks
1 Carrot (or two)
1 Parsnips (a couple)
Floury potatoes, one large one or a couple of small ones
Stock, vegetable or chicken - enough to cover

Method

Chop all the vegetables into chunks and sweat them in a covered pan for twenty minutes - until they’re soft and glistening. Pour the hot over and continue to simmer for another twenty minutes.
Either pour into the bowl of a food processor and blitz, or use a stick blender to whizz everything into a velvety broth. Return to the pan for another ten minutes to heat through before serving.
