Method
Cut the pumpkin into large wedges.
Add the pumpkin to a roasting pan along with garlic (with skin). Apply oil on them and season with salt. Roast it in an oven preheated to 180 c for 45 minutes or until the pumpkin is tender.
Once roasted, scoop out the flesh of the pumpkin using a spoon. Remove the peel from the garlic and set aside.
Heat butter and oil in a pan. Add the onion and saute until translucent.
Add Kashmiri chilli powder, coriander powder, black pepper powder, nutmeg and cinnamon powder. Saute for 1 minute.
Add the roasted garlic and pumpkin. Add the stock/water and bring it to a boil.
Allow it to simmer for 5 minutes. Add the cream and turn off the heat immediately.
Once it has cooled down slightly, add the pumpkin mixture to a blender. Blend into a fine mixture, adding stock/water to adjust the consistency.
Garnish with cream and toasted pumpkin seeds. Serve with bread or salad, or by itself.
