RECIPE NOTES & TIPS
You can use any variety of pumpkin you like - I generally like to use butternut, Jap or Kent.
Roast the pumpkin until completely softened (it should easily fall apart when pressed with a fork).
Season the pumpkin and onion with salt and pepper before roasting.
Do not at any stage exceed the MAX line in the Thermomix bowl. This is particularly important if using a TM31 (which has a smaller bowl). If you're nearing the line, use less vegetable stock liquid.
Allow the pumpkin to cool slightly before pureeing.
For a non-dairy free version, you can use regular cream.
Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days.
Freeze leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 months.
