    Pumpkin Cream Soup With Shrimp Recipe

    • Prep Time: 15 Min
    • Cooking Time: 40/60 Min
    • Servings: 10

    Ingredients

    • 350 g (12,4 oz) of baked pumpkin pulp
    • 150 g (5,3 oz) of boiled potatoes
    • 1 small onion
    • 16 shrimps
    • a bit of paprika
    • extra virgin olive oil
    • extra virgin olive oil
    • a few sprigs of rosemary
    • salt and pepper

    Instructions

    First of all, you have to bake the pumpkin in the oven. It takes from 40 to 60 minutes, depending on the amount and size of the pumpkin.

    We prefer to cook the whole pumpkin in the oven. This way the pumpkin will remain more flavorful and firm, even if this method requires more time. You will know that it'is ready when a fork will enter easily into the pumpkin.
