How to Prepare Pumpkin Coconut Soup With Walnut Gremolata [Vegan, Grain-Free]

Sautée the onion in the coconut oil for a few minutes until it's soft.
Add the minced garlic, ginger, cinnamon, garam masala, coriander, and turmeric and stir for a minute.
Add pumpkin pieces and 2 cups of water and bring to a boil.
Reduce heat and let it simmer for 20-30 minutes until pumpkin is fork tender.
Add coconut milk and remove from heat.
Blend in a food processor or blender until creamy, and adjust seasoning if necessary
Toast the walnuts and coconut in the oven at 250°F for 10 minutes, watching them closely.
In a mortar, crush the garlic clove, and add the coconut flakes and garam masala.
Crush until they release their aroma, then add the walnut pieces and crush some more until you get a bread crumb consistency.
Sprinkle the gremolata on top of the soup, and serve.

Notes

If you have some left over mini pumpkins from Halloween, you can re-purpose them as serving bowls. Put them in the fridge so they can last a little longer, and make this soup a festive dish – definitely worthy of your Thanksgiving table!
