- 750 milliliters Vegetable broth
- 200 milliliters Coconut milk
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoons Ground nutmeg
- 1 teaspoons Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.
Add the chopped onion and sauté for 3-4 minutes until translucent.
Add the minced garlic and chopped carrot. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Add the cubed pumpkin and stir until the vegetables are well combined.
Sprinkle in the cinnamon, nutmeg, salt, and black pepper. Stir to coat the vegetables with the spices.
Pour in the vegetable broth and bring the mixture to a boil.
Reduce the heat to a simmer, cover the pot, and let it cook for 20 minutes or until the pumpkin and carrot are tender.
