HEALTHY SIMPLE PUMPKIN SOUP RECIPE FOR WEIGHT LOSS (Only 3 Main Ingredients) ~ Mama Wong
Hi, I'm Emi!
Welcome to another episode of
the Wong family's healthy, simple
homecooking recipes
Today's one has been
super highly requested by many of you on Instagram
It's Mama Wong's pumpkin soup, using only 3 main ingredients
Now, let's get to the kitchen
Hello everyone!
Today I will be cooking Emi's beloved pumpkin soup
It's very simple
These are our 3 main ingredients
Pumpkin, tomato, and onion
These things are optional
If you want the soup to be sweeter, you can add a carrot
Some bay leaves for a better fragrance
Garlic and ginger to remove the grassy flavor of the pumpkin
Salt, black pepper and some mixed herbs
This part is up to you
E: Entirely optional!
One tip is: if you want to have a sweeter soup
You need to be careful when selecting the ingredients
Choose tomatoes and pumpkins that are ripe
When unripe, they don't have as much sweetness
Which would result in a less flavorful soup
Mama Wong said that the soup is super simple
What's our first step?
We have cut up all the ingredients
As for the amount, it really depends on the size of your pumpkin
And the size of your tomatoes
I used 2/3 of the pumpkin
Two tomatoes and half an onion
One carrot and a head of garlic
If your garlic bulb is big, use only half of one
E: Got it!
Remember the cooking steps
Do not mess up the order!
A drizzle of oil in the pot, then we add the ginger
Use the soup pot
The same pot that we will use when boiling the soup
It's that easy, no need to first fry them in a separate pan
One less thing to wash, because Mama Wong is lazy
Fry the ginger until fragrant
E: Next goes the garlic
Onion
E: So if you skip the ginger and garlic
The first step would be to fry the onion
MW: We fry with medium heat
That's about to be ready
In goes the carrot
Carrot and pumpkin can go in at the same time
We keep the heat on medium throughout this part
Because it can burn quite easily
These are vegetables after all
It's already smelling really nice
So for this soup, you can't just throw all the ingredients in
And boil them in water
E: You need to fry everything first MW: for the flavor to come through
Pick one piece up, and check if it's fragrant yet
Then you are ready for the next step
This part won't take long, only about 2-3 minutes
Smell it, is it fragrant?
A little bit
Just a little bit, which means we need to fry it a while longer
Let the vegetables get a bit of a charred flavor
Alright, we are almost there
You can smell the pumpkin flavor
At the end, add the tomatoes
All in one pot
Yes, it's that easy
Let it all cook
Now we can add our spices
Before putting the bay leaves in, tear them up slightly
So the flavor can come out
If you don't have fresh bay leaves at home, but instead you've got dried herbs
Just sprinkle it on, to your own taste
Turn the heat to high
Hear this sizzle.. but it won't burn since we put the tomatoes in
Now you can pour in the water
E: How much water?
MW: Just enough till all the ingredients are submerged
Like this is perfect, now we wait till it boils
E: It's boiling
Reduce the heat to medium-low
Let it cook for half an hour
Then turn off the heat and leave the pot covered for 10-15 minutes
Afterwards, let it cool down a little
And then we are ready to blend it
After blending it up, the soup is done
It's a very simple soup, so you should try to make it yourself
Now we leave it to boil
When it's done cooking, you can season the soup
It's also okay if you prefer to leave the salt out
Or wait until you taste it and then decide how much salt to add
I added a little bit
Black pepper and some herbs
It's up to you and your own preferences
When it's not steaming anymore, we can transfer it to the blender
The steaming stopped
Now we are ready to blend
Pour the vegetables and the liquid into the blender
E: You don't have to use this specific blender
E: We have used another blender before and it worked just as well
Maybe you'll wonder when to stop blending
Since all the ingredients have been cooked until they were soft
It will only take about 2-3 minutes of blending
And then it will be ready
If you're not sure
You can take it down, take a spoonful and do a taste test
Whether you want it creamy and smooth
Or chunky
That's up to you
We like to blend it until it's creamy
E: The super-simple pumpkin soup is done
Even for a kitchen idiot like me
I feel like I can replicate it, although I have never tried
Because we have Mama Wong at home
It's so easy to make
E: From the ingredients, we showed earlier
You can make about 4 bowls of soup, according to Mama Wong
Perfect for a family to share
And the leftovers can be stored in the fridge for the next day
Let's do a taste test
You try it first
MW: I try?
Smells great
E: Tastes great?
Tastes great! E: Right. Let me get some
MW: Very sweet
C: Very nice
E: He says the same thing every time he eats our food
You guys can all give this pumpkin soup a try at home
Delicious and healthy
I hope you will all enjoy this pumpkin soup
