I absolutely love pumpkin season. This is a Thanksgiving favorite for me! You can add carrots and potatoes or any other veggie you’d like and serve over rice. Mmm delicious!

Ingredients

  • 1 yellow onion, diced
  • 2tbsp olive oil
  • 2 cups vegetable broth (I used 2 bullion cubes in two cups water)
  • 1 can coconut milk
  • 1 15 ounce can pumpkin
  • 2 tsp cumin
  • 2 tsp curry
  • pepper, to taste
  • sauteed tofu, cubed

Method

Step 1

In a large pot, sautee the onions in the olive oil until onions become translucent.

Step 2

Add remaining ingredients and stir well to combine. Allow to simmer over low heat for at least fifteen minutes, stirring occasionally.

    Love this amazing looking curry. I like the way you have presented it in the empty pumpkin shell.

    This was good, but I think a few tweaks would make it amazing. I’d skip the water all together – that seemed to dilute the taste, and it was already plenty soupy. I’d also maybe reduce the amount of broth, increase the curry a bit, and add a little sea salt. It was still yummy but a bit bland; I’d like more of the coconut and curry flavors to come out. But thanks – it’s definitely a keeper! Perfect for a cold night.

      Thanks so much for the feedback. The recipe doesn’t actually call for water. I think the way the ingredients list was formatted made it seem like that it did, my apologies. I changed it to make it a little clearer.

      I’m glad you liked it anyway. :)

    Curry powder or curry paste? Looks delicious, by the way. I might be a blasphemer and add chicken though…

      Thank you, Jerott. I used curry powder and it was pretty tasty. I also thought it was pretty darn delicious with the tofu. Maybe try it that way frist? ;)
