PUMPKIN CAKE WITH SULTANA & COCONUT



Pumpkin Cake With Sultana & Coconut image

Another clipping I have kept from the Australian Womans Weekly 1987. A little taste of country cooking from rural New South Wales. I made this for my husband to take as morning tea at his work once and it went very quickly.(About 500 grms of raw pumpkin will cook down to 1 1/2 cups mashed)

BUTTERNUT PUMPKIN SOUP WITH GINGER AND COCONUT



Butternut Pumpkin Soup With Ginger and Coconut image

Pumpkin soup is an Australian favourite, but I sometimes find it a bit bland. This recipe adds a little something extra, without overpowering the pumpkin flavour. You can garnish this with some coriander leaves (AKA cilantro). Can be served hot or cold. Note: if you like to make LOTS of soup, you'll want to double this. It really does make only about 4 serves. It looks like a lot of pumpkin, but it cooks down to nothing.

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

600 g diced butternut pumpkin (You'll need a 1 kg pumpkin)
1 large onion, chopped
1 tablespoon oil
2 teaspoons minced garlic

150 ml coconut milk
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 tablespoon tomato paste
1 teaspoon sugar

Steps:

  • Saute pumpkin, garlic, ginger and onion lightly in vegetable oil.
  • Add stock (it should just cover the pumpkin). Bring to boil and cook gently for 15 minutes.
  • Let cool slightly and puree in blender or food processor, or use your stick blender straight in the pot.
  • Return to heat, add coconut cream, lemon juice, tomato paste and sugar.
  • Simmer another five minutes.
  • Season to taste with salt and pepper.
  • Serve with lots of fresh, crusty bread.
