(Even if it's still double what it should be)

Originally Posted By smedley Pumpkin, ginger and apple soup low-fat cooking spray 1 medium onion(s), chopped 1 medium apple(s), chopped 1 small carrot(s), chopped 2 teaspoon grated ginger root, fresh 450 g pumpkin, deseeded and chopped 2 stock cubes, made up with 850ml of hot water 1/4 teaspoon spice, either allspice or nutmeg 1 pinch salt, and freshly ground black pepper 1 teaspoon parsley, chopped, to garnish Instructions Heat the cooking spray in a large saucepan and sauté the onion, apple and carrot for 3 - 4 minutes, until softened. Add the ginger and stir well. Add the pumpkin and stock to the saucepan. Bring to the boil, then simmer gently without a lid for 20 minutes, until the vegetables are tender. Transfer the soup to a blender or food processor and blend for 15 seconds, or until smooth. Return to the saucepan, reheat and season to taste with allspice or nutmeg, salt and pepper. Serve, sprinkled with chopped fresh herbs. If you don't use cooking spray then a spoon of some kind of vegetable oil would be fine. TPAM loves Christmas decorations
