    I added some ginger at the beginning and also some celery (as I’m fighting a cold) that with the pepper really gave the soup flavour. Perfect winter warmer. The sweet potato complemented the pumpkin. thanks very yummy (I didn’t bother with the cream) didn’t need it.

    Just made this using potato instead of sweet potato as I didn't have any sweet potato. Added half an onion as my mum loves onion and she's here for tea tonight Wink
    other than that made it as per the recipe. Absolutely delish. Love Plenty of flavour! Having it with crusty rolls for dinner...Mmm, yummm!
    Will definitely be making again. For those that lacked flavour, I don't know what you did differently or if your veggies just weren't flavoursome? I used butternut pumpkin as I find it the sweetest. The other pumpkins are to bland for me Big Smile

    I made a batch for work lunches. A lovely change to 'plain' pumpkin soup  tmrc_emoticons.)

    Bitter!

    Bit disappointed, the leek was over-powering and the other flavours never came through tmrc_emoticons.(

    Tried this tonight, was nice but I thought it needed a bit more flavour.
