Winter for me means soup and one soup I make every winter, and occasionally at other times during the year, is Roast Pumpkin Soup. Pumpkin has to be one of my favourite vegetables, with butternut pumpkin by far my favourite variety. I could eat roasted butternut pumpkin until the end of time but I would probably start to look like one after a while so best not.
You can certainly make this soup with any pumpkin you have on hand, and on this particular day I had a large Jarrahdale pumpkin that we had been given by a local farmer as I was saving the butternut he had also given us for a vegetable lasagne.
