Ingredients

Metric quantities · weights after peeling and trimming unless stated

  • 500 g pumpkin, peeled and deseeded, 2 cm cubes
  • 200 g carrots, 1 cm slices
  • 100 g onions, wedges
  • 25 ml olive oil
  • 600 ml low-salt vegetable stock, prepared
  • 1 g ground cumin
  • 2 g salt
  • 320 g bread

Method

  1. Roast for flavour

    Oven + baking tray

    Heat the oven to 200°C fan. Toss pumpkin, carrot and onion with oil and cumin. Spread on a tray and roast for 30–35 minutes, turning once, until tender and browned at the edges.

  2. Bring together

    Bimby TM7

    Let the roasted vegetables cool for 5 minutes before adding to the bowl with the stock. Cook 10 min / 100°C / speed 1. Check the fill level before starting.

  3. Blend and finish

    Bimby TM7

    Switch the heating off. Fit the lid and lid cap correctly; blend 30 sec / speed 5, then, if the appliance permits, 30 sec / speed 8 for a smooth texture. Let the blades stop and the lid unlock before opening; take care with steam. Taste and add the listed salt gradually. Serve with the bread.

Kitchen notes

Makes four soup bowls; the bread turns this into a light meal. For larger appetites add a separate sandwich or another course. Do not multiply the batch in the Bimby bowl: stay below its 2.2 litre maximum and make separate batches. Keep lid vents clear and fit the lid cap correctly. Heat soups at no more than 100°C and speed 2; stop if they rise towards the lid. Blend only after cooking, with heating off, following the screen prompts. Stove alternative: soften the aromatics in a saucepan, simmer the remaining vegetables and stock until tender, then use a hand blender with its head submerged. This is oven-led rather than a fully Bimby-cooked soup. Contains wheat in the bread.
