Recipe Introduction


Serves 4


List of Ingredients




11/2 tsp cumin seed
1/4 tsp black pepper
1/4 tsp nutmeg
1/8 tsp allspice
Pinch of cayenne pepper
11/2 tsp olive oil
1 medium onion, coarsely chopped
1 garlic clove, minced
1/2 tsp salt
11/2 cups canned solid-pack pumpkin puree
2 TB maple syrup
1 TB fresh lime juice
1/4 cup plain nonfat soy yogurt (optional)
1 lime, cut into four wedges

Recipe



In a small bowl, mix cumin seed, black pepper, nutmeg,
allspice, and cayenne. In a medium saucepan, warm oil over
high heat.
Add spices and cook, stirring, for 30 seconds to release
flavors.
Immediately pour in 1 3/4 cups water, then add onion, garlic, and salt. Cover and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer five minutes. Whisk in pumpkin, bring to a simmer, cover and cook over low heat, stirring occasionally, 15 minutes to blend flavors.
Remove from heat and stir in maple syrup and lime juice. Serve
hot topped with a dollop of soy yogurt (if using) and with a lime wedge for squeezing.
