Heat the olive oil over medium heat in a large pot. Add the diced onion and sauté until translucent, about 5-7 minutes.
Add the minced garlic and grated ginger, and sauté for another 2 minutes until fragrant.
Stir in the pumpkin puree, chicken broth, coconut milk, ground cumin, nutmeg, salt, and black pepper. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.
Reduce the heat to low and let the soup simmer uncovered for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
Once the soup has simmered, use an immersion blender to puree the soup until smooth and creamy. Alternatively, carefully transfer the soup to a blender and blend until smooth. Return the soup to the pot if using a blender.
Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. If you prefer a thinner soup, add more chicken broth or coconut milk to reach your desired consistency.
Ladle the hot soup into bowls and garnish with toasted pumpkin seeds and chopped fresh parsley before serving.
