Heat the olive oil or substitute in a large pan & add the onion, cook for 5 minutes then add the pumpkin & cook for a further 10 minutes. Add stock then bring to a slow boil, simmer for ten minutes until the pumpkin is soft now add the cream or your chosen substitute & marinade then using a blender, purée til there are no lumps. Taste & season if needed.
For the croutons heat the fry light in frying pan, add garlic, salt, pepper & coriander then add the bread … fry until crisp. I used seeded wholemeal & it was delicious!
NOTES
When not in season, try replacing the pumpkin with sweet potato for a delicious alternative
