Ruby it was a bit hit and miss with the soup I just put in what I had lol. I used about 1/3 of large pumpkin, 1 sweet potato a tin of sweet corn, 2 teaspoons of grated ginger, 1 ½ pint of chicken stock (2 knorr cubes) 1 ½ pint of milk. Cooked it all then liquidised it. It then strained (but you have to). Here is a recipe I found on line 500 g chopped sweet potato 500 g chopped butternut pumpkin 4 cups of chicken stock (home made is best) 1 medium onion 50 g butter 400 g of Carnation milk OR 400 Coconut cream (garnish with coriander) 1 teaspoon crushed ginger 1 teaspoon crushed garlic salt and pepper Method: In a large saucepan or boiler, melt the butter. Add Chopped onion, garlic and ginger - cook till onion is clear. Add other vegetables, mix, cook a few minutes. Then add chicken stock, salt, pepper, bring to boil. Simmer 20 minutes. Cool (a bit) blend. Add in Carnation OR Coconut cream. Return to heat, bring to nearly boiling. Julia
