Steps:

• Blend all soup ingredients together in a high-speed blender, in batches if needed. Blend until the pumpkin is completely pureed and the soup has a silky texture.
• To serve, pour soup into warm soup bowls. Place 2 teaspoons of marinated portobellos in the middle of each bowl. Decorate each soup with coconut cream, cilantro, and scallion slices.
• Combine the shoyu, olive oil, water, and ginger in a small bowl. Add the mushrooms and marinate at room temperature for at least 30 minutes. Drain mushrooms and use as directed.

Steps:

• Heat oil in a pot, add lemongrass and ginger cooking until fragrant.
• Add onions and garlic, stir, cook till translucent. Then, add chopped bell pepper and saute well.
• Reduce to low heat and add red Thai curry paste and stir quickly to coat all ingredients. Cook for another 2 minutes.
• Add pumpkin purée, stir well and then cover the pot. Let it cook through for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Add the sugar and coconut milk then stir into pumpkin mixture till evenly combined.
• Bring to a boil and then leave on a low; simmer for another 10 minutes.
• Remove lemongrass stalks.
• Blend in batches (or use a hand held immersion blender) till smooth.
• Add fish sauce, lime juice, and peas as desired. If adding peas, cook on low heat for 5 more minutes.
• Serve.

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan, heat oil and butter over low heat. Cook garlic, shallots, chilies, and lemongrass in oil until fragrant (be careful not to burn the garlic). Stir in chicken stock, coconut milk, and pumpkin; bring to a boil. Cook until pumpkin softens.
• In a blender, blend the soup in batches to a smooth or slightly chunky consistency, whatever you prefer. Serve with basil leaves.

Steps:

• In a saucepan, combine the pumpkin, stock or water, ginger, and lemongrass. Cover, bring to a boil, reduce the heat to medium-low, and simmer until the pumpkin is very tender, about 12 minutes. Add the scallions and cook briefly.
• Transfer the contents of the saucepan to a blender or food processor and process until the soup is partially puréed. Pour in half of the coconut cream and process until smooth.
• Rinse the saucepan and pour the purée into it. Add half of the remaining coconut cream. Season with salt and pepper and heat through without allowing the soup to boil. Taste and adjust the seasoning and squeeze in lime or lemon juice.
• If using the kaffir lime leaves, fold them in half and, using a sharp knife, trim away the hard central rib. Cut the leaves into threadlike shreds. Ladle the soup into bowls, add the remaining coconut cream, forming a swirl on top of each bowl, and garnish with the lime leaf or zest.

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a medium saute pan over medium-low heat. Add the onions, garlic and curry powder and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are translucent, about 10 minutes.
• Combine the onion mixture, pumpkin puree and chicken stock in a blender until smooth.
• Transfer the soup to a large pot, whisk in the coconut milk and cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until it warmed through, about 10 minutes. Taste the soup and season with the salt and pepper.
• Serve the soup in bowls. Garnish with the sour cream and chopped pumpkin seeds. Serve with lime wedges, if desired.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Toss the pumpkin or squash in a roasting tin with half the oil and seasoning, then roast for 30 mins until golden and tender.
• Meanwhile, put the remaining oil in a pan with the onion, ginger and lemongrass. Gently cook for 8-10 mins until softened. Stir in the curry paste for 1 min, followed by the roasted pumpkin, all but 3 tbsp of the coconut milk and the stock. Bring to a simmer, cook for 5 mins, then fish out the lemongrass. Cool for a few mins, then whizz until smooth with a hand blender, or in a large blender in batches. Return to the pan to heat through, seasoning with salt, pepper, lime juice and sugar, if it needs it. Serve drizzled with the remaining coconut milk and scattered with chilli, if you like.

Steps:

• Place curry paste in a stockpot over medium heat and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Stir in chicken stock and pumpkin; cook until soup starts to bubble, about 3 minutes. Add cream of coconut; cook for 3 minutes. Add jalapeno pepper and Anaheim chile pepper; cook until hot, about 3 minutes. Season with salt.
