Azuki Bean and Pumpkin Soup
This is abosolutely lovely and not too sweet.
Ingredients:
1 kilo of pumpkin
2 cloves garlic chopped
1 teaspoon thyme (or rosemary)
sesame oil or sunflower
whole salt
1 cup azuki beans
1 liter and a half of water
whole salt
1 tablespoon shoyu – soy sauce (optional)
Method:
Boil azuki beans in a pressure cooker with water and salt for 40 minutes.
In a frying pan with a lid put the shredded pumpkin, minced garlic, olive oil, salt and thyme over a low heat. Cook 20 minutes until everything is soft. Ok here we go. Blend together the contents of the two pots reserving a few pieces of pumpkin and a few spoonfuls of cooked azuki beans to be added later just before serving. If the soup needs a little salt, add some soy sauce. Enjoy!
looks wicked! 🙂
Very delicious, I love the azuki 😉
